Abstract
This work introduces novel advancements in automatic voltage regulator (AVR) control, addressing key challenges and delivering innovative contributions. The primary motivation lies in enhancing AVR performance to ensure stable and reliable voltage output. A crucial innovation in this work is the introduction of the random walk aided artificial rabbits optimizer (RW-ARO). This novel optimization strategy incorporates a random walk approach, enhancing the efficiency of AVR control schemes. The proposed cascaded RPIDD2-PI controller, fine-tuned using the RW-ARO, stands out as a pioneering approach in the AVR domain. It demonstrates superior stability, faster response times, enhanced robustness, and improved efficiency compared to existing methods. Comparative analyses with established controller approaches reaffirm the exceptional performance of the proposed method. The new approach results in shorter rise times, quicker settling times, and minimal overshoot, highlighting its effectiveness and speed in achieving desired system responses. Moreover, the novel approach attains higher phase and gain margins, showcasing its superior performance in the frequency domain. The disturbance rejection and harmonic analysis are performed in order to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach for potential real-world applications. The latter analyses further cement the superior capability of the proposed approach for the automatic voltage regulation.
