This book intends to report the new results of the microgrid in stability analysis, flexible control and optimal operation. The oscillatory stability issue of DC microgrid is explored and further solved. Flexible and stable voltage & frequency control of microgrid is put forward considering the distributed generations or distributed energy storages. The optimal operation of multi-energy is researched in view of economic efficiency and low-carbon development. The results of this book are original from authors who carry out the related research together for a long time, which is a comprehensive summary for authors' latest research results. The book is likely to be of interest to university researchers, electrical engineers and graduate students in power systems, power electronics, renewable energy and microgrid.

The book focuses on control and communication for demand response with thermostatically controlled loads. This is achieved by providing in-depth study on a number of major topics such as load control, optimization strategies, communication network model, resource allocation methods, system design, implementation, and performance evaluation. Two major cost modeling methods are established in detail, which are cost modeling based on Taguchi Loss Function and cost modeling based on regulation errors. The comprehensive and systematic treatment of issues in optimization strategies and resource allocation for demand response are one of the major features of the book, which is particularly suited for readers who are interested to learn solutions in control and communication. The book can benefit researchers, engineers, and graduate students in fields of control theory, automation, communication engineering and economics, etc.

This book provides robust analysis and synthesis tools for Markovian jump systems in the finite-time domain with specified performances. It explores how these tools can make the systems more applicable to fields such as economic systems, ecological systems and solar thermal central receivers, by limiting system trajectories in the desired bound in a given time interval. Robust Control for Discrete-Time Markovian Jump Systems in the Finite-Time Domain focuses on multiple aspects of finite-time stability and control, including: finite-time H-infinity control; finite-time sliding mode control; finite-time multi-frequency control; finite-time model predictive control; and high-order moment finite-time control for multi-mode systems and also provides many methods and algorithms to solve problems related to Markovian jump systems with simulation examples that illustrate the design procedure and confirm the results of the methods proposed. The thorough discussion of these topics makes the book a useful guide for researchers, industrial engineers and graduate students alike, enabling them systematically to establish the modeling, analysis and synthesis for Markovian jump systems in the finite-time domain.

This book introduces a family of large-signal stability-based control methods for different power inverters (grid-connected inverter, standalone inverter, single-phase inverter, and three-phase inverter) in practical applications. Power inverters have stability issues, which include the inverter's own instability as well as the inverter's instability in relation to the other power electronic devices in the system (i.e., weak grid and the EMI filter). Most of the stability analyses and solutions are based on small-signal stability technology. Unfortunately, in actuality, the majority of practical instability concerns in power inverter systems are large-signal stability problems, which, when compared to small-signal stability problems, can cause substantial damage to electrical equipment. As a result, researchers must conduct a comprehensive investigation of the large-signal stability challenge and solutions for power inverters. This book can be used as a reference for researchers, power inverters manufacturers, and end-users. As a result, the book will not become obsolete in the near future, regardless of technology advancements.

This book describes the research progress of the control design about strict-feedback nonlinear systems. A novel gain control design method is proposed, which greatly simplifies the construction procedure of controller for strict-feedback nonlinear systems. The control design problem of strict-feedback nonlinear systems is converted into the determination problem of gain parameters or the construction of dynamic gain equations. Therefore, the tedious iterative design procedure is effectively avoided. This book can be used as a reference for researchers in the field of control theory and engineers seeking advanced methods in practical control applications.
