Abstract The design of power system stabilizer (PSS) is load-dependent and needs continuous adjustment at each operating condition. This paper aims at introducing a robust non-fragile PSS for interconnected power systems. The proposed controller has the capability of adaptively tuning online its rule-base through a variable-structure direct adaptive control algorithm in order to rigorously attain the desired objectives. The PSS controller acts on damping the electromechanical modes of oscillations not only through a wide range of operating conditions but also in presence of different disturbances. Using MATLABTM-Simulink, simulation results significantly verify that the proposed controller provides favorable performance and efficiently contributes towards enhancing the system dynamic behavior when applied to the four machines two-area power system that mimics the typical system behavior in actual operation. The interaction between the variable-structure adaptive fuzzy-based power system stabilizer (VS-AFPSS) and the existed typical ones inside the interconnected power systems has been explicitly discussed. Compared to other conventional controllers, VS-AFPSS enables better damping characteristics to both local and inter-area oscillation modes considering different operating conditions and sever disturbances.

This paper proposes a simple design procedure to solve the problem of controlling generator transient stability following large disturbances in power systems. A state-feedback excitation controller and power system stabilizer are designed to guarantee robustness against uncertainty in the system parameters. These controllers ensure satisfactory swing damping and quick decay of the voltage regulation error over a wide range of operating conditions. The controller performance is evaluated in a case study in which a three-phase short-circuit fault near the generator terminals in a four-bus power system is simulated.

The basic aim of the power system stabilizer is to damp the fluctuations that occur on the rotating axis of the synchronous generator that result from noise or disturbance on the power system. This is achieved by producing an appropriate damping torque for these fluctuations across the excitation circuit of the generator and for a wide range of operation conditions. The study describes the types of power system stabilizers and giving an mathematical model of the power system that consists of a synchronous machine connected to the infinite bus though transmission lines. This has been achieved by simulating the electric and mechanical equations of power systems and proposing a methodological approach to design a Fuzzy Logic Power System Stabilize (FPSS) relaying in the design on the (Matlab/Fuzzy logic toolbox).Speed deviation (Δω) and acceleration (∆ώ) of the synchronous machine are chosen as the input signals to the fuzzy controller in order to achieve a good dynamic performance .The complete range for the variation of each of the two controller inputs is represented by a 7×7 decision table, i.e. 49 rules using proportional derivative like fuzzy logic. The power system (SMIB) was tested with the presence and absence of the excitation system, then (CPSS) was added, and then (FPSS).The simulation results of the proposed fuzzy logic on )SMIB( gave a better dynamic response, decreased the settling time and good performance of the stabilizer in damping the fluctuations that arise in the speed of rotation of the generator and its active power in various operating conditions when proposed (FPSS) is compared with conventional PSS. The simulation results proved the superior performance of the proposed (FPSS).

Abstract In this paper, a novel bacterial foraging algorithm (BFA) based approach for robust and optimal design of PID controller connected to power system stabilizer (PSS) is proposed for damping low frequency power oscillations of a single machine infinite bus bar (SMIB) power system. This paper attempts to optimize three parameters (Kp, Ki, Kd) of PID-PSS based on foraging behaviour of Escherichia coli bacteria in human intestine. The problem of robustly selecting the parameters of the power system stabilizer is converted to an optimization problem which is solved by a bacterial foraging algorithm with a carefully selected objective function. The eigenvalue analysis and the simulation results obtained for internal and external disturbances for a wide range of operating conditions show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed BFAPSS. Further, the time domain simulation results when compared with those obtained using conventional PSS and Genetic Algorithm (GA) based PSS show the superiority of the proposed design.

In this paper, a multi-objective design of the multi-machine Power System Stabilizer (PSS) using Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is proposed. The fine tuning of PSS parameters problem is converted to an optimization problem that is resolved by an ACO-based dominant metaheuristic technique. The strength of the proposed ACO-based PSS is tested on two different multi-machine power systems under diverse operating conditions. The outcomes of the proposed ACOPSS are compared with the Conventional PSS, Genetic Local Search-based PSS, Chaotic Optimization-based PSS and Particle Swarm Optimization-based PSS (PSOPSS). From the simulation results it can be inferred that the ACOPSS reduces the settling time and maximum overshoot more than the other techniques.

The design of a proportional, derivative, and integral (PID) based power system stabilizer (PSS) is carried out using the bat algorithm (BA). The design of proposed PID controller is considered with an objective function based on square error minimization to enhance the small signal stability of nonlinear power system for a wide range of operating conditions. Three benchmark power system models as single-machine infinite-bus (SMIB) power system, two-area four-machine ten-bus power system, and IEEE New England ten-machine thirty-nine-bus power system are considered to examine the effectiveness of the designed controller. The BA optimized PID based PSS (BA-PID-PSS) controller is applied to these benchmark systems, and the performance is compared with controllers reported in literature. The robustness is tested by considering eight plant conditions of each system, representing the wide range of operating conditions. It includes unlike loading conditions and system configurations to establish the superior performance with BA-PID-PSS over-the-counter controllers.

The application of the phasor measurement units and the wide expansion of the wide area measurement units make the time delay inevitable in power systems. The time delay could result in poor system performance or at worst lead to system instability. Therefore, it is important to determine the maximum time delay margin required for the system stability. In this paper, we present a new method for determining the delay margin in the power system. The method is based on the analysis in the s-domain. The transcendental time delay characteristics equation is transformed to a frequency dependent equation. The spectral radius is used to find the frequencies at which the roots cross the imaginary axis. The crossing frequencies are determined through the sweeping test and the binary iteration algorithm. A single machine infinite bus system equipped with automatic voltage regulator and power system stabilizer is chosen as a case study. The delay margin is calculated for different values of the power system stabilizer (PSS) gain, and it is found that increasing the PSS gain decreases the delay margin. The effectiveness of the proposed method has been proved through comparing it with the most recent published methods. The method shows its merit with less conservativeness and fewer computations.

In this article, an Oppositional Differential search algorithm (ODSA) is comprehensively developed and successfully applied for the optimal design of power system stabilizer (PSS) parameters which are added to the excitation system to dampen low frequency oscillation as it pertains to large power system. The effectiveness of the proposed method is examined and validated on a single machine infinite bus (SMIB) using the Heffron-Phillips model. The most important advantage of the proposed method is as it reaches toward the optimal solution without the optimal tuning of input parameters of the ODSA algorithm. In order to verify the effectiveness, the simulation was made for a wide range of loading conditions. The simulation results of the proposed ODSA are compared with those obtained by other techniques available in the recent literature to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed algorithm.

In this article, a multi objective and a novel objective based Power System Stabilizer (PSS) design is proposed for a modified Heffron - Philiphs model (MHP) using bio inspired algorithms. A conventional Heffron – Philphs (CHP) model is developed by taking infinite bus voltage as reference, whereas MHP model is developed by taking transformer high voltage bus voltage as reference, which makes independent of external system data for the PSS design. PSS parameters are optimized using differential evolution (DE) algorithm and Firefly (FF) algorithm to obtain better dynamic response. The proposed method is tested on various operating conditions under different typical disturbances to test efficacy and robustness. Simulation results prove that better dynamic performance is obtained with the proposed stabilizers over the fixed gain stabilizers. This method of tuning would become a better alternative to conventional stabilizers as conventional stabilizers require retuning of parameters mostly when operating condition changes, which is a time-consuming process and laborious. Eigen value analysis is also done to prove the efficacy of the proposed method over the conventional methods.
