Control Optimization Method for Ship Direct Current Microgrid Based on Impedance Reshaping

Abstract

In response to the constant power negative impedance characteristics on the load side of a ship DC microgrid, leading to voltage oscillation issues in the DC bus, this paper proposes a control optimization method based on impedance reshaping using bus voltage feedback. First, a simplified small-signal diagram of a lithium battery energy storage system converter is analyzed. Combining active damping control technology, an impedance regulator is introduced, and its parameters are optimized to effectively reduce the output impedance magnitude on the power source side. Subsequently, a ship DC microgrid simulation model is constructed using MATLAB R2022a/Simulink for validation, and comparative analysis is conducted on the anti-interference ability of the DC bus voltage before and after impedance reshaping. Finally, a model is built on a semi-physical simulation platform to experimentally verify the proposed method. The research results indicate that the proposed control optimization method can effectively increase the system’s stability margin, suppress DC bus oscillations, and enhance the anti-interference ability of the ship DC microgrid’s bus voltage when facing significant power load variations.
