Abstract
In the modular on-line uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system, the unequal power sharing may exist in the system due to the mismatched line resistance, leading to the circulating current, overloading, and even tripping the system. This chapter introduces a dynamic consensus algorithm (DCA)-based virtual resistance control strategy to share the active power and harmonic power. This approach does not require a central controller, and the communication links are only required between the neighboring UPS modules, which enhances system’s reliability and flexibility. Simulation results and experimental results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the control strategy.
