UDE-Based Robust Droop Control of Inverters in Parallel Operation

摘要

Conventional droop control methods cannot achieve accurate proportional reactive power sharing, due to the mismatch of components, system disturbances, etc. In this paper, an uncertainty and disturbance estimator (UDE)-based robust droop controller is proposed to address these problems. As a result, the model nonlinearity and uncertainty (e.g., power angle and uncertain output impedance) and system disturbances (e.g., variations of output impedance, load change, and fluctuating dc-link voltage) can be estimated and compensated. Experimental results from a single-phase system with two inverters are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy. In order to further demonstrate the advantage and flexibility of the proposed UDE-based control strategy, simulation results from a three-phase system with two inverters are presented with comparison to a robust droop control strategy reported.
