This article addresses a model predictive control (MPC) technique for load frequency control (LFC) system in the presence of wind power, communication delay, and denial‐of‐service (DoS) attack. In this article, communication delay is incorporated into a single area control error transmission for simplicity, wind power and load disturbance are regarded as Lipschitz nonlinear terms, as for the randomly occurring DoS attack, it is modeled as Bernoulli processes with known conditional probability. Thinking all these adverse factors to stability and the limitation of input constraint synthetically, the stability of LFC system can be guaranteed by delay‐dependent Lyapunov function lemma and a state feedback MPC controller is designed to solve the LFC problems by minimizing the infinite‐horizon objective function. Although some scholars have studied the performance degradation and instability of LFC system caused by cyber attack and/or communication delay and some very nice results have been addressed, limited works have considered the MPC approach to deal with both the problems of cyber attack and communication delay which explicitly considers the physical constraints. In addition, the delay‐dependent Lyapunov function is adopted to deal with the problem of communication delay, which results in less conservatism of the presented method. Finally, the optimization problem with input constraint is solved and proven to be recursive feasibility, and the closed‐loop system turns out to be stable. The reasonability and validity of the provided strategy is verified through several groups of simulation experiments. It illustrates that the proposed control method can keep the system frequency steady in the standard range in spite of various attack conditions.
Although there have already been many works on the model predictive control (MPC) for load frequency control (LFC) of modern power systems, limited works can be found in the literature related to the output feedback MPC. This article studies an N‐step synthesis approach of output feedback MPC for LFC systems considering the problems of communication efficiency and network security. First, to improve the communication efficiency, an adaptive event‐triggering (AET) scheme involving two adaptive laws is designed to reduce the number of transmitted data packages which offers more flexible compared with existing event‐triggering schemes; Second, to handle the network security, a new model of LFC power system combining the AET scheme and random deception attack under an unified framework is established; Moreover, a synthesis approach of output feedback MPC with N‐step strategy is addressed for LFC of power system by parameterizing the infinite control moves into a series of output feedback laws. Compared with the existing predictive load frequency control methods, the present technique is shown as an useful way to improve the control performance since more degrees freedom is introduced by the N‐step strategy. Finally, the simulation experiment is carried out to verify our technique.
