Abstract

This paper deals with the problem of stability analysis of generator excitation system (GES) with interval time-varying delays. Network-controlled GES involves transmitting measured data from the plant site to controller and control signals from the controller to the plant site. Open communication channels impart time-varying nature to the delays. These time-varying delays can vary between intervals which would affect the system stability. The model of a GES is developed with the proportional integral (PI) controller including delay effects. In this paper, a less conservative delay-dependent stability criterion is derived using Lyapunov-Krasvoskii functional (LKF) for GES with interval time-varying delays. The bounding technique for derivative of LKF is developed by using Wirtinger inequality and free-weighting matrices. The relationship between the delay margins of GES and gains of the PI controller are investigated. This delay margin is used to tune the PI controller. The adequacy of the proposed result is confirmed by using simulation studies.
