This paper proposes an enhanced distributed secondary control technique aimed at achieving equitable current sharing and voltage regulation simultaneously within a DC microgrid. In a stand-alone DC microgrid featuring several distributed energy resources (DERs), droop control is adopted to achieve a proportional distribution of current among the DERs within the microgrid. The operation of the droop control mechanism leads to a variation in bus voltage, which is further.
