Consensus-Based Delay-Tolerant Distributed Secondary Control Strategy for Droop Controlled AC Microgrids

IEEE Access, 2021
This article formulates a fully-distributed and delay-tolerant secondary control scheme for droop-controlled AC microgrids. The proposed strategy is inspired by the cooperative control concept of multi-agent systems (MASs).

Event-triggered consensus control for general second-order multi-agent systems

Systems Science & Control Engineering, 2021
The consensus problem of multi-agent systems with general second-order dynamics is studied. A distributed event-triggering strategy is proposed to reduce the communication frequency of agents and the update frequency of event-triggering controller. Under
