Abstract :
The inherent limitations of the conventional droop control scheme have recently been revealed and a robust droop controller to achieve exact proportional load sharing has been proposed. This paper continues the work with a strategy to improve the voltage quality so that the total harmonic distortion of the output voltage can be maintained small even when nonlinear loads are connected. Experimental results are provided to verify the analysis and design.
