Abstract

In this paper, a model for the master-slave DC Microgrid over a fiber optic link is proposed. The delay margin is calculated according to Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional using the LMI toolbox in Matlab with the binary iteration algorithm. The optical fiber link is implemented using optisystem simulator. The optical fiber link is set to transmit the digitalized reference current from master controller to the slave controller. The link tested at 100Mbps, 1Gbps and 2.5Gbps data rate values and several optical fiber lengths and wavelength of 1550nm and 1400nm. The results show that the performance of the link is sufficient at received power more than -30dBm for all data rate values at 1550nm. While at 1400nm, the attenuation rate is very high. Therefore, the link must be 10km to achieve acceptable performance. This wavelength is used in this simulation to avoid the C band and O band, which used for telecommunication purposes.
