VIC scheme controls the power electronic converter (PEC) to achieve a smooth voltage profile. However, the intrinsic output impedance of the converter acts as an output disturbance and distorts the inertial response. An additional feed-forward controller has been used in previous works to mitigate this. However, the design proposed in this paper eliminates the additional controller while achieving a smooth voltage profile. This paper proposes a zero placement technique-based design of virtual inertia controller for a DC microgrid. Small-signal models for the system with the proposed controller designed using zero placement were developed to analyze the stability and the effect of parameter variation for optimal performance. Next, the application of the proposed design methodology is extended to a system employing two battery energy storage system units for analyzing parallel operation. Finally, the effectiveness of the controller designed using the zero placement technique was verified under different loading conditions through MATLAB/Simulink simulations and experiments carried out on the developed laboratory prototype. � 2022 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
