Sliding mode controller design for frequency regulation in an interconnected power system

Abstract

In this paper, a Sliding mode controller design method for frequency regulation in an interconnected power system is presented. A sliding surface having four parameters has been selected for the load frequency control (LFC) system model. In order to achieve an optimal result, the parameter of the controller is obtained by grey wolf optimization (GWO) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) techniques. The objective function for optimization has been considered as the integral of square of error of deviation in frequency and tie-line power exchange. The method has been validated through simulation of a single area as well as a multi-area power system. The performance of the Sliding mode controller has also been analyzed for parametric variation and random loading patterns. The performance of the proposed method is better than recently reported methods. The performance of the proposed Sliding mode controller via GWO has 88.91% improvement in peak value of frequency deviation over the method of Anwar and Pan in case study 1 and similar improvement has been observed over different case studies taken from the literature.

The Bees Algorithm Tuned Sliding Mode Control for Load Frequency Control in Two-Area Power System

“…Many scholars have revealed in the literature that the SMC could solve the issue of LFC to a great extent [26,27]. It is also verified that soft computing techniques could remarkably improve the performance of controllers.…”

“…A discrete-SMC design for LFC in a four-area interconnected power system is presented in [25]. In [26], the authors have proposed SMC design for different power systems, the parameters of the controller are optimised by Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO) and Grey Wolf Optimisation (GWO) algorithm. The author in [27] has proposed a new full order SMC method for LFC in three different power systems.…”

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Transmission Line Inspection: Status, Standardization, and Perspectives

“…As the traditional method of transmission line inspection (Liu et al, 2019a), manual inspection has some obvious disadvantages (Muniappan, 2021) when it comes to special terrain and meteorological conditions which frequently lead to low inspection efficiency (Padhy and Panda, 2021), and personnel safety is not always guaranteed (Kumar et al, 2021). Although the United States and European countries started to use helicopters to inspect transmission lines from the middle of the 20th century, the high risk and inefficiency of manual ways have not been fundamentally addressed (FU et al, 2017).…”

A Critical Survey on Renewable Energy Applications in the Philippines and China: Present Challenges and Perspectives

“…In response to the advantages of renewable energy (Gullberg et al, 2014), many countries and regional organizations have entered into cooperative targeted renewable energy initiatives (Anand et al, 2021;Mohan, 2021;Sasmita and Sidhartha, 2021). Existing research on renewable cooperation (Feng et al, 2020) is mainly focused on a comprehensive analysis of the renewable energy cooperative mechanism between two countries (Suryanarayana and Saumendra, 2020), a country and regional organizations (Mehdi and Mehdi, 2020), and regional organizations (Indeo, 2019), by forecasting the potentiality of cooperation and undertaking analysis via a mathematical model (Satish and Vinod, 2020).…”
