Enhanced Virtual Synchronous Generator Control for Parallel Inverters in Microgrids

TL;DR: An enhanced VSG control is proposed, with which oscillation damping and proper transient active power sharing are achieved by adjusting the virtual stator reactance based on state-space analyses and communication-less accurate reactive power sharing is achieved based on inversed voltage droop control feature and common ac bus voltage estimation.

A Voltage and Frequency Droop Control Method for Parallel Inverters

TL;DR: In this paper, a new control method for the parallel operation of inverters operating in an island grid or connected to an infinite bus is described, where each inverter supplies a current that is the result of the voltage difference between a reference ac voltage source and the grid voltage across a virtual complex impedance.
