  • Patent number: 11563323
    Abstract: The invention discloses an islanding detection method in DC microgrids based on MPPT trapezoidal voltage disturbance. The steps are as follows: start the MPPT strategy; set the starting signal threshold of disturbance; measure the output current of PVA at the maximum power; calculate the same environmental factor of PVA with different capacities under the same light intensity and temperature in real time; when the environmental factor is greater than the starting signal threshold of the disturbance, periodic trapezoidal disturbance is carried out to the PVA port voltage reference; if the PCC voltage Upcc exceeds the threshold set by the passive method, it is judged as islanding; otherwise, it is judged whether the change rule of Upcc is consistent with the change rule of the calculated PCC voltage Upccp under the trapezoidal disturbance; If it is consistent, it is judged as islanding; otherwise, it is pseudo islanding.
