The convergence of sensing, computing, communication and control elements drives the
traditional point-to-point control systems towards networked control systems. Sampled-data …

Communication infrastructure (CI) in microgrids (MGs) allows for the application of different
control architectures for the secondary control (SC) layer. The use of new SC architectures …

Fixed-time and prescribed-time consensus control can bring an explicit estimate of the
settling time without dependence on initial conditions, which is important in providing control …

Modern utility grid is experiencing a transition from conservative centralized generation
structure to a more distributed and decentralized structure. To achieve this transition …

This paper performs an extensive review on control schemes and architectures applied to dc
microgrids (MGs). It covers multilayer hierarchical control schemes, coordinated control …

The power system worldwide is going through a revolutionary transformation due to the
integration with various distributed components, including advanced metering infrastructure …

Microgrid is a new concept for future energy distribution system that enables renewable
energy integration. It generally consists of multiple distributed generators that are usually …

Self-governing small regions of power systems, known as “microgrids”, are enabling the
integration of small-scale renewable energy sources (RESs) while improving the reliability …

Urban microgrids have become the main body of energy consumption in modern power
systems. To reduce carbon emissions, distributed generators (DGs), such as roof …

This article is concerned with the distributed secondary frequency and voltage control for
islanded microgrids. First, the distributed secondary control problem is formulated by taking …
