Abstract
- This paper presents a novel distributed voltage control method for multi-terminal direct current (MTDC) systems based on the average consensus algorithm. The proposed method combines the idea of secondary integral voltage control and regulator synchronization problem. It realizes adjustable tradeoff between two conflicting control objectives, that is, voltage regulation and power sharing. The proposed control algorithm only needs a low-bandwidth communication between two adjacent voltage source converters (VSCs) and local information to work effectively. Moreover, regarding the system dynamic response, a parameter tuning method for the proposed controller is provided to achieve the fastest convergence of the distributed control algorithm. This paper also develops a small-signal dynamic model for VSC-MTDC systems with distributed controllers to evaluate the system dynamic performance. The proposed method is validated by time-domain simulation of a 4-terminal VSC-MTDC system. The simulation results show that flexible tradeoff between voltage regulation and power sharing can be achieved under necessary constraints on the DC bus voltages and power sharing ratio.
