Flexibility Enhancement of Hybrid Microgrids Using Optimal H∞ Filtering-based Fuzzy Control of UIPC

ABSTRACT:

The current study focuses on flexibility enhancement of hybrid or ac/dc microgrids (HMGs), which uses an improved Unified Interphase Power Controller (UIPC). The UIPC is adopted as an effective tool for interconnecting the HMG. A novel control system is suggested for UIPC line power converter (LPC). The proposed control scheme is an optimal H∞ filtering-based fuzzy inference system which is able to effectively provide a flexible control for the LPCs during system different conditions, as shown by simulations.

KEYWORDS:

1.      Hybrid microgrid

2.       Flexibility

3.      H∞ filtering

4.      Fuzzy controller

SOFTWARE: MATLAB/SIMULINK

CONCLUSION:

The HMGs are the most prevalent configurations for smart microgrids. Conventionally, in an HMG, the ac and dc groups of microgrids have been interconnected by the parallel - connected BILPCs. This connection brings many problems into the control and operation of an HMG. The UIPC has been presented in this paper, as a new and effective solution for this problem, instead of using the parallel-connected BILPCs. Also, a new optimal H∞ filtering-based fuzzy control scheme has been proposed for the LPCs in the UIPC to increase the flexibility. The simulation results have confirmed the flexible power transferring performance of the HMGs during various conditions using UIPC.
