Multivariable Self-Tuning Feedback Linearization Controller for Power Oscillation Damping

Abstract

Abstract-The objective of this paper is to design a measurement based self-tuning controller which does not rely on accurate models and deals with nonlinearities in system response. A special form of neural network (NN) model called as feedback linearizable neural network (FLNN) compatible with feedback linearization technique is proposed for representation of nonlinear power systems behaviour. Levenberg−Marquardt (LM) is applied in batch mode to improve the model estimation. A time varying feedback linearization controller (FBLC) is employed in conjunction with the FLNN−LM estimator to generate the control signal. Validation of the performance of proposed algorithm is done through the modeling and simulating both normal and heavy loading of transmission lines, when the nonlinearities are pronounced. Case studies on a large scale 16−machine, 5−area power system are reported for different power flow scenarios, to prove the superiority of proposed scheme against a conventional model based controller. A coefficient vector Λ for FBLC is derived and utilized online at each time instant, to enhance the damping performance of controller.

Observer-Based FL-SMC Active Damping for Back-to-Back PWM Converter with LCL Grid Filter

“…Feedback linearization is a technique that reduces the nonlinearity of nonlinear systems, in which an equivalent model including nonlinearity can be switched to a linear model [11]. In order to design a controller that reduces the resonance frequency component, in the differential equation of equation (1), when the differential equation of the grid current is expressed as a state equation like equation (4), it is to be equation (5).…”

Dual-Loop-Based Current Controller for Transformerless Grid-Tied Converters with Improved Disturbance Attenuation against Voltage Measurement Errors

“…In addition, the improvement introduced by the corresponding quadratic prediction algorithm enables the reduction of undesired peaks in transient processes. In [22], a generic nonlinear multi-input single-output self-tuning controller is employed to damp the oscillations under various post-disturbance operating conditions, and the proposed method has been proved to be superior to the conventional model-based controller. Additionally, considering parameter uncertainties in systems, reachability analysis is used in [23] for controller tuning, which can ensure stable operation against parameter uncertainties in power systems.…”
