Go to Editorial ManagerIn this paper, the power system stabilizer (PSS) and Thyristor controlled phase shifter(TCPS) interaction is investigated . The objective of this work is to study and design a controller capable of doing the task of damping in less economical control effort, and to globally link all controllers of national network in an optimal manner , toward smarter grids . This can be well done if a specific coordination between PSS and FACTS devices , is accomplished . Firstly, A genetic algorithm-based controller is used. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is utilized to search for optimum controller parameter settings that optimize a given eigenvalue based objective function. Secondly, an optimal pole shifting, based on modern control theory for multi-input multi-output systems, is used. It requires solving first order or second order linear matrix Lyapunov equation for shifting dominant poles to much better location that guaranteed less overshoot and less settling time of system transient response following a disturbance.
With the aim of enhancing the small signal stability of electric power systems, the present paper evaluated and compared some power system stabilizers (PSSs). The dilemma of small signal instability is avoided by equipping the generator’s automatic voltage regulator (AVR) with a backup controller known as a PSS. Conventional PSS operates with acceptable efficiency when designed to suit specific operating conditions, but there are limitations and drawbacks that arise when disturbances lead to fluctuation in system parameters. Strengthening the design methodology for PSS in the face of these limitations is achieved by adopting artificial intelligence. This research presents a fuzzy, neural system-based approach to the development of PSS. The Adaptive Network Based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is used to design the Fuzzy Neural Power Systems stabilizer (FNPSS) . ANFIS eliminates the disadvantages of using fuzzy logic and neural networks independently in PSS design. The single machine infinite bus (SMIB) power system was used as a case study to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. Additionally, the study includes root locus scheme for loop of voltage regulation by utilizing proportional Integral controller, P-I controller, a widely used traditional linear design technique, for comparison. The simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the method, demonstrating the superiority of the ANFIS design method over other PSS designs. MATLAB, along with Control System Toolbox and SIMULINK, is used for simulation and design.
