Abstract:

This paper presents a cooperative control which is applied to the secondary control of a microgrid controlled via a multi-agent scheme. Balancing power that leads to voltage and frequency stability in a microgrid is essential. The voltage and frequency regulations are limiting within the specified limits and conveying them to their nominal values. Limiting and conveying the voltage and frequency to their nominal values is done by the primary and secondary controls, respectively.  A Microgrid has both dispatchable and non-dispatchable sources. Dispatchable sources are controlled by the conventional P-ω and Q-E droop controls. A photovoltaic as a non-dispatchable source generates the active power according to weather conditions, but the reactive power is supplied using the E-Q droop method. The E-Q droop uses the idle capacity of the inverters in the reactive power supply. Distributed secondary control increases the stability due to good, accurate and reliable controls. The frequency is constant in the whole microgrid. Since line impedances are different, load terminal voltage control is necessary. The load is considered as another agent, who can request the desired voltage at its terminal bus.

Secondary control of microgrids based on distributed cooperative control of multi-agent systems

This study proposes a secondary voltage and frequency control scheme based on the distributed cooperative control of multi-agent systems. The proposed secondary control is implemented through a communication network with one-way communication links. The required communication network is modelled by a directed graph (digraph). The proposed secondary control is fully distributed such that each di...

Cooperative Control of Distributed Multi - Agent Systems ∗

This paper presents an approach for cooperative search by a team of distributed agents. We consider two or more agents moving in a geographic environment, cooperatively searching for targets of interest and avoiding obstacles or threats. The moving agents are equipped with sensors to view a limited region of the environment they are visiting, and are able to communicate with one another to enab...
