Comparative analysis of the proposed R-EAPC strategy with recent Post-2020 Literature.
| Study (reference) | Active power control | Reactive power/voltage support | Apparent power constraint/oversizing | Stability assessment | Key limitation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Enhanced Active Power Control using INC-MPPT4 | Uses INC-based APC with improved MPPT tracking | No VAR loop; voltage regulation absent | Capability limits not considered; oversizing not analysed | Basic small-signal discussion | Does not coordinate AP and VAR; limited grid-support |
| STATCOM-Based VAR Support in PV Systems5 | Standard MPPT (P&O/INC) | Strong reactive-power compensation and voltage support | No inverter S-limit or oversizing involvement | No CPF or Lyapunov analysis | Treats reactive support separately; no APC–VAR integration |
| Coordinated Control of PV Inverters & VSCs7 | Coordinated power control in LV distribution networks | Provides voltage and power-sharing support | Apparent-power capability discussed but oversizing not implemented | Small-signal / eigenvalues | Does not combine MPPT-based APC with dynamic VAR and oversizing |
| Proposed R-EAPC | INC-based APC integrated in dq-frame | Fast q-axis reactive regulator with PCC-voltage loop | Explicit S-limit + analytical 10% oversizing benefit | Eigenvalue + Bode + CPF + Lyapunov | Unified A–Q control, capability limit enforcement, and oversizing—absent in previous works |
