Abstract

The problem of transient stability and voltage regulation for a single machine infinite bus (SMIB) system is addressed in this paper. An improved Backstepping design method for transient stability enhancement and voltage regulation of power systems is discussed beginning with the classical Backstepping to designing the nonlinear excitation control of synchronous generator. Then a more refined version of this technique will be suggested incorporating the sliding mode control to enhance voltage regulation and transient stability. The proposed method is based on a standard third-order model of a synchronous generator connected to the grid (SMIB system). It is basically implemented on the excitation side of the synchronous generator and compared to the classical Backstepping controller as well as the conventional controllers which are the automatic voltage regulator and the power system stabiliser. Simulation results prove the effectiveness of the proposed method which ameliorates to a great extent the transient stability compared to the other methods.
