Flexibility and reliability of ac microgrids are enhanced by reducing the dependence on communications in multilayer hierarchical control. In this sense, this paper presents a secondary control with no communications for islanded microgrids. It is based on a control scheme that switches between two configurations according to a time-dependent protocol. With this proposal, an excellent performance in terms of transient response and frequency restoration in steady state is achieved. This paper also presents design considerations for the control parameters. In addition, the theoretical predictions are validated by experimental results from a laboratory microgrid.
