  This paper presents an efficient method based on the adaptive virtual impedance and distributed communication link with a hierarchical control system in the resistive AC islanding micrigrids for accurate power sharing and circulating current reduction. In existing methods, the adaptive virtual resistance can take negative values and violate the assumption of feeders’ resistive dominance based on which the droop controller is designed, and as a result, deteriorate its performance. Besides, the negative virtual resistance, with a reduction in the system overall damping, can reduce the stability margin and lead to side effects on the closed-loop system performance, especially during transients. In the proposed method, the problems associated with the negative virtual resistance are removed via the intelligent implementation of a new distributed communication link among microgrid inverters. The advantages of the proposed method include: circulating current elimination, accurate power sharing among distributed generators proportional to their rated capacities, prevention of voltage and frequency deviations from their reference values in point of power coupling (PCC) bus, guarantee of the resistive or inductive dominance of the feeder impedance in various operating points, decoupling between active and reactive powers, and as a result, guarantee of a desirable performance for droop controller in different operating points, performance and stability improvement, and finally using a simple, one-sided and a low bandwidth communication link instead of the complex, two-sided, and centralized communication system. Simulation results in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment demonstrate that the proposed control strategy has obviated effectively the shortcomings of the conventional droop and adaptive virtual impedance controllers.
