This article presents a review of coordinated control strategies, stability analysis, and fault
management for dc shipboard microgrids (dc-SMGs). As an emerging application, the dc …

Over the last few decennia, power DC/DC converters have been the subject of great interest
due to its extensive increment of utilization in different applications. A thorough review on …

In modern dc shipboard microgrid (SMG) systems, the propulsion motors and hotel loads are
always supplied through tightly regulated point of load converters, which behave as constant …

In this paper, a converter-based dc microgrid is studied. By considering the impact of each
component in dc microgrids on system stability, a multistage configuration is employed …

The penetration of dc distributed power systems is increasing rapidly in electric power grids
and other isolated systems to cater demand for cheap, clean, high quality, and uninterrupted …

Constant power loads may yield instability due to the well-known negative impedance
characteristic. This paper analyzes the factors that cause instability of a dc microgrid with …

DC microgrids consist of multiple power electronic converter units interconnected in a
network with sources and loads. They are commonly found in the power systems of electric …

The negative impedance characteristics of a constant power load (CPL) can easily lead to
the instability of the DC bus voltage. To improve the stability of the DC bus voltage, an …

Tightly regulated power electronic converters show negative impedance characteristics and
behave as a constant power load (CPL) which sink constant power from their input bus. This …

This paper provides a comprehensive review of the major concepts associated with the
μgrid, such as constant power load (CPL), incremental negative resistance or impedance …
