Description
Summary:The challenge of achieving a reliable and safe synchronization process for microgrids under weak communication conditions is a significant issue in distributed grid-connected energy storage. This is also the core motivation of this study. First, the concept of weak communication is introduced, and weak communication conditions are simulated by limiting the number of communications. Additionally, a fast synchronization method based on the frequency difference at the grid connection point is proposed, which allows for the rapid synchronization of converters under weak communication conditions. This method also includes an analysis of the range for key parameters, providing practical and feasible guidance for its real-world application. Finally, the validity of the theory is verified through PSCAD/EMTDC simulations and physical experiments.
