Static output feedback LFC for semi‐Markov type interconnected multi‐area power systems: A non‐fragile PI strategy

Abstract

AbstractThis article addresses the static output feedback load frequency control (LFC) problem for semi‐Markov type interconnected multi‐area power systems (IMAPSs) through non‐fragile proportional‐integral (PI) strategy. Primarily, by roundly exploiting the dynamical properties and considering random mutations of the IMAPSs, the semi‐Markov jump process (MJP) is elaborately scheduled for establishing the dynamical model with precision. Subsequently, on account of the characteristic of geographical isolation, a memory‐like sampled‐data LFC mechanism considering time‐varying transmission delay for the semi‐Markov jump IMPASs is formulated accordingly. Additionally, the non‐fragile issue is explored for the PI controller gain fluctuations to meet the actual operation scenario. After that, a mode‐dependent two‐side polynomial‐type looped Lyapunov functional is constructed for enhancing flexibility. Then, in virtue of the stochastic analysis technique, some relaxed conditions guaranteeing stochastic stability with prescribed performance are thereby derived in the shape of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Ultimately, a numerical example is carried out to validate the efficacy of the developed control methodology.
