A Fully Decentralized Control of Grid-Connected Cascaded Inverters

Abstract

This letter proposes a decentralized control scheme for grid-connected cascaded modular inverters without any communication, and each module makes decisions based on its own local information. In contrast, the conventional methods are usually centralized control and depend on a real-time communication. Thus, the proposed scheme has advantages of improved reliability and decreased costs. The overall system stability is analyzed, and the stability condition is derived as well. The feasibility of the proposed method is verified by simulation.
