A black-box dynamic equivalent model for microgrids using measurement data [PDF]

, 2014
A dynamic equivalent black-box model, based on Prony analysis is presented. The proposed model is suitable for dynamic studies of microgrids, considering changes in the active and reactive powers, bus voltages, currents and frequency. The developed model

Hierarchical Control of Space Closed Ecosystems: Expanding Microgrid Concepts to Bioastronautics

IEEE Industrial Electronics Magazine, 2021
One of the main challenges of human space exploration is the development of artificial ecosystems, which can be used as Life Support Systems (LSSs) to enable long duration human space missions. In an open LSS, no food generation or waste treatment is provided in space and supply from earth is necessary. According to Fig.

State-Space Modeling and Stability Analysis for Microgrids with Distributed Secondary Control [PDF]

2018 IEEE 27th International Symposium on Industrial Electronics (ISIE), 2018
High penetration of renewable energies in power systems leads to the necessity of comprehensive modelling of a microgrid (MG) for its appropriate control. The distributed secondary control in the MG can be used for complementing the role of primary droop-based control.

Identifying Parameter Space for Robust Stability in Nonlinear Networks: A Microgrid Application [PDF]

2019 American Control Conference (ACC), 2019
As modern engineering systems grow in complexity, attitudes toward a modular design approach become increasingly more favorable. A key challenge to a modular design approach is the certification of robust stability under uncertainties in the rest of the network.
