Abstract
Abstract This paper proposes a novel robust power system stabilizer (PSS), based on hybridization of fractional order PID controller (PIλDμ) and PSS for optimal stabilizer (FOPID-PSS) for the first time, using a new metaheuristic optimization Bat algorithm (BA) inspired by the echolocation behavior to improve power system stability. The problem of FOPID-PSS design is transformed as an optimization problem based on performance indices (PI), including Integral Absolute Error (IAE), Integral Squared Error (ISE), Integral of the Time-Weighted Absolute Error (ITAE) and Integral of Time multiplied by the Squared Error (ITSE), where, BA is employed to obtain the optimal stabilizer parameters. In order to examine the robustness of FOPID-PSS, it has been tested on a Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) power system under different disturbances and operating conditions. The performance of the system with FOPID-PSS controller is compared with a PID-PSS and PSS. Further, the simulation results obtained with the proposed BA based FOPID-PSS are compared with those obtained with FireFly algorithm (FFA) based FOPID-PSS. Simulation results show the effectiveness of BA for FOPID-PSS design, and superior robust performance for enhancement power system stability compared to other with different cases.
