HBMO Based Output Feedback Damping Controller for STATCOM

Abstract

Original scientific paperThe aim of this paper is to investigate a novel approach for output feedback damping controller design of the static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) in order to enhance the damping of power system low frequency oscillations (LFO). The design of output feedback controller is considered as an optimization problem according to the time domain-based objective function solved by a honey bee mating optimization (HBMO) algorithm that has a strong ability to find the most optimistic results. To validate the accuracy of results a comparison with genetic algorithm (GA) has been made. The effectiveness of the proposed controller are tested and demonstrated through eigenvalue analysis and nonlinear time-domain simulation studies over a wide range of loading conditions. The simulation study shows that the designed controller by HBMO performs better than GA in finding the solution.

U ovome radu istražene su metode za sintezu regulatora prigušenja za statički sinkroni kompenzator (STATCOM) u svrhu povećanja prigušenja nisko frekvencijskih oscilacija u energetskim sustavima. Sinteza regulatora je razmatrana kao optimizacijski problem u vremenskoj domeni koji je riješen pomoću HBM algoritma optimizacije (eng. Honey bee mating) koji ima svojstvo pronalaska najoptimističnijeg rezultata. U svrhu provjere rezultata napravljena je usporedba s rješenjem koje daje genetski algoritam. Efikasnost predloženog regulatora testirana je uz pomoć analize svojstvenih vrijednosti i nelinearnih simulacija u vremenskoj domeni za različite uvjete. Simulacijski rezultati pokazuju da se korištenjem regulatora s HBM optimizacijom postižu bolji rezultati nego korištenjem genetskog algoritma.

“…In other words, for each time segment, there are a number of states for the solar irradiance and wind speed. To express more about output power of WT and PV with clustering method, calculation method for output power of the wind turbine is described and calculation method for output power of PV is in the same way for more details see [10]. Solar cells can also be calculated in the same way.…”
