The objective function used in this study was an integral of the time-weighted absolute error (ITAE). In the optimization, the gain control parameters of the proportional integral (PI), the integral (I), and FPID were optimized and compared to improve the limitations drawn by the controller over a few parameters. To demonstrate that FPID controllers with IPFC produce better and more accurate optimization results than integral and PI controllers optimized by DE, the interline power flow control (IPFC) of a flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) device with suitable connections and control parameter optimization was used. Also, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) PID with IPFC was compared with the proposed DEFPID + IPFC, and better results were achieved by usin...

Therefore, properly designed power system controlsare required. Without these, system instability will cause equipment failures, and possibly even cascading events and blackouts. To cope with this, intelligent controllers using soft computing are necessary for real time operation. In this paper, the reheat type three-area thermal power system is considered, and the output scaling factors, gain parameters of fuzzy membership functions, and parameters of fuzzy-proportional integral derivative (FPID) controllers are optimized using a differential evolution (DE) optimization techniqueand integral time multiplied absolute error (ITAE) as objective functions. To improve the limitations of the controller and to enhance stability of the system, high voltage direct current (HVDC) technology is advantageous due to its quickresponse capabilities. In this paper, a HVDC is connected in paral...

The commonly used doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbines have a general trend of increasing oscillation damping. Unless properly controlled, the high penetration of wind energy will increase the oscillation and affect the control and dynamic interaction of the interconnected generators. This paper discusses power oscillation damping control in the automatic generation control (AGC) of two-area power systems with DFIG wind turbines and Matlab code/Simulink interfacing optimization methods. The differential evolution (DE) optimization technique is used to obtain the controller gain parameters. In the optimization process, a step load perturbation (SLP) of 1% has been considered in Area 1 only, and the integral of time weighted absolute error (ITAE) cost function is used. Three different test studies have...
