SELF TUNING CONTROLLERS FOR DAMPING LOW FREQUENCY OSCILLATIONS

摘要

This paper presents a new control methods based on adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy damping controller and adaptive Artificial Neural Networks damping controller techniques to control a Unified Power Flow controller (UPFC) installed in a single machine infinite bus Power System. The objective of Neuro-Fuzzy and ANN based UPFC controller is to damp power system oscillations.Phillips-Herffron model of a single machine power system equipped with a UPFC is used to model the system. In order to damp power system oscillations, adaptive neuro-fuzzy damping controller and adaptive ANN damping controller for UPFC are designed and simulated. Simulation is performed for various types of loads and for different disturbances. Simulation results demonstrate that the developed adaptive ANN damping controller has an excellent capability in damping electromechanical oscillations which exhibits a superior damping performance in comparison to the neuro-fuzzy damping controller as well as conventional lead-lag controller.
