Abstract

A new stability criterion for bidirectional DC-DC converters in a dc power system is presented in this paper. This proposed criterion gives an overall indicator for the stability at each node in the dc power system. It based on perturbing the system at a certain node by injecting a small ac current at this node, and accordingly monitoring the variation of the voltage at this node. Then, the node impedance can be calculated. This node impedance implies the stability status of the system at that node. The concept of the node impedance stability criterion is introduced, and the application of this criterion to a dc power system is investigated, as well.
