Application of multi-agent control to multi-terminal HVDC systems

This paper addresses control of DC voltage in a multi-terminal HVDC system. The proposed control strategy in this paper utilizes multi-agent control methodology to control the set values of the DC voltages of converters. The input data used for the proposed control is based on either local or a combination of local and remote information. For the remote data, a time delay for received information is considered. Some case studies are presented using MATLAB/Simulink to show the performance of the proposed control method.
