Abstract

This paper discusses the power coupling problem of the traditional virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control strategy in medium and low-voltage microgrids, analyzes the cause of power coupling, and discusses the necessity for decoupling. In addition, a power decoupling control strategy based on an adaptive diagonal matrix compensation matrix is proposed. By compensating for the coupling component, the output power of the VSG is completely decoupled. To cope with the operating characteristics of frequent load switching on the grid side of a microgrid, the proposed strategy tracks variations in the static operating point of the VSG and automatically adjusts the compensation component. Simultaneously, the stability of the VSG is analyzed, using the transient instability criterion of the power system, to ensure decoupling. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is verified by simulation and experimental results.
