This papers presents a theoretical stability study of a newly proposed AC microgrid architecture and its control strategy without droop and communication. The paper proves that the proposed AC microgrid is inherently stable in the presence of any type of load. The paper also proposes a control embellishment, which makes any type of load appear to microgrid as a simple constant current load. Theoretical findings of the paper are validated by extensive simulation results.
