Abstract

In this paper, a multivariable linear integral feedback regulation controller for a microgrid was proposed. Considering that the nominal structure model of the inverter could not effectively and in a timely manner deal with the impact of filter parameter uncertainty, there were changes in output power quality among different generation environments. To solve the constraints imposed by uncertain factors on the system, we formulated the following scheme. First, based on the analysis of the asymptotic stability and power characteristics of the nominal model, we added the microgrid filter parameter uncertainty to this model. Secondly, under the action of the bounded range, the performance characteristics of the optimal cost were analyzed, adjusted, and optimized. The controller adjusted parameters to ensure the stable operation of the microgrid system, and to achieve the voltage stability regulation and output power balance. Finally, we built a test system to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed linear integral controller in MATLAB/Simulink.
