Abstract
The main objective of this research project is to demonstrate a valuable method for scheduling an SSSC damping controller installed in a single‐machine infinite bus (SMIB) power system. Over time, a damping controller has been used in power systems to reduce low‐frequency oscillation. The configuration challenge associated with this configuration is regarded as an optimization problem. A modified optimization algorithm (ZOA) that can be used to adjust the controller parameters is constructed by modifying the original ZOA algorithm. The suggested study distinguishes between the mZOA method, traditional ZOA, and conventional PSO algorithms. Based on the simulation findings, it can be inferred that the modified approach that has been suggested is the most effective method for defining the said damping controller by considering the percentage improvement in the objective function value.
