Adaptive H ∞ excitation control of multimachine power systems via the Hamiltonian function method

Abstract

Using the Hamiltonian function method, this paper investigates the adaptive H ∞ excitation control of multimachine power systems with disturbances and parameter perturbations. A key step in applying the Hamiltonian function method to the multimachine system is to express the system as a dissipative Hamiltonian system, i.e. to complete dissipative Hamiltonian realization (DHR). By using pre-feedback technique, this paper expresses the multimachine power system as a dissipative Hamiltonian system. Then, the stability analysis of the achieved dissipative Hamiltonian system is proceeded. Finally, based on the achieved DHR form, the adaptive H ∞ excitation control of the multimachine power system is investigated and a decentralized simple excitation control strategy is obtained. Simulations on a six-machine system show that the adaptive H ∞ excitation control strategy proposed in the paper is more effective than some other control schemes.
