Comparative Analysis of PI controller, Fuzzy controller and Interval Type-2 Fuzzy based Performance of Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Compensation of Voltage Sag and Swell

Abstract

In today’s scenario, the power quality issues like voltage sag and swell are major concerns in power systems. On the distribution, side to overcome this issue a custom power device DVR(Dynamic Voltage Restorer) is proven to be a more effective solution that is lower in cost, smaller in size, and offers a faster dynamic response for the protection of sensitive load. DVR is a series compensating device which operates as a voltage booster. The application of DVR is entitled to be a flawless compensating device for the compensation of voltage sag and swell. This paper presents the modeling and simulation using various controller topologies like PI controller based on synchronous reference frame algorithm, fuzzy controller, and interval type 2 fuzzy controller. The results are then verified using a Matlab-Simulink environment.
