In this paper, an H∞ controller-based cascaded control strategy has been discussed and analysed for the improvement of power quality and smooth seamless transition between the operating modes in a grid-connected microgrid system. The control strategy involves two control loops namely, an outer grid current control loop and an inner local load voltage control loop. Both the control loops are designed using H∞ repetitive controllers. Particle swarm optimisation (PSO) technique is used to optimise the weighting parameters of the H∞ controller to design an optimal controller for achieving the desired performance. The main objective of the control strategy is to minimise the harmonic content present in the load voltage and the grid current ensuring smooth transition between the operating modes of the microgrid without any noticeable transients. The H∞ repetitive controller with optimised weighting parameters outperforms the other traditional controllers in achieving better dynamic response with reduced THD.

A method is presented to design and tune the modified linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controller to obtain increased efficiency during an earthquake. It utilises swarm intelligence to tune the parameters of LQG based on quasi resonance between the natural frequencies of the structure in first two modes and the predominant frequencies of the seismic signal. The modified controller thus developed minimises the energy of structure by altering its parameters online. For testing of this modified controller, a benchmark prototype structure is numerically tested under different seismic signatures recorded in near/far fault sites in the different soil conditions. A parametric study comparing the efficiencies of modified LQG, and other contemporary controllers is presented. It is observed for El-Centro earthquake that the modified controller achieved reductions of 22%, 33% and 27% in relative displacement, inter-storey drift, and absolute acceleration respectively as compared to the conventional LQG controller. Similar results are observed for Gebze and Chi-Chi earthquakes. The modified controller is also evaluated in a situation where power vanishes at the peak of the seismic excitation. Based on the results and discussion, the performance of the proposed controller is observed to be superior among all controllers considered in this study.
