An Adaptive Event-Triggered Secondary Regulation Strategy for Microgrids with Loss of Effectiveness Actuator Faults

In this paper, an adaptive event-triggered secondary regulation strategy is investigated for microgrids with loss of effectiveness actuator faults. In order to deal with unknown loss of effectiveness actuator faults, a distributed secondary regulation strategy is proposed, which achieves voltage and frequency regulations, as well as power sharing. Meanwhile, to save system resources and relieve the communication burden, an adaptive event-triggered mechanism is designed. Finally, some simulation results are given to validate the proposed strategy, which indicates that the proposed strategy reduces the controller updates and increases the reliability of system.
