DC microgrid is becoming popular because of its high efficiency, high reliability and connection of distributed generation with energy storage devices and dc loads. The main objective in the dc microgrid is to keep the dc bus voltage constant and equalise per unit current sharing among converters. The conventional droop control is used to equalise per unit current sharing similar to reactive power sharing in an ac microgrid. Nevertheless, the problem in conventional droop control is that equal current leads to a reduction of dc bus reference voltage and voltage regulation becoming unequal across each node due to unequal line resistance drop. The proposed controller works on adaptive droop and voltage shifting technique, which equalises the current sharing whether line resistances are similar or not and controls each output voltage to follow the respective bus reference voltage. The isolated dc–dc converters are used to simulate and validate the proposed control technique.
