A modified particle swarm optimization algorithm and its application in optimal power flow problem

A modified particle swarm optimization (MPSO) algorithm is presented. In the new algorithm, particles not only studies from itself and the best one but also from other individuals. By this enhanced study behavior, the opportunity to find the global optimum is increased and the influence of the initial position of the particles is decreased At last, the method adopting MPSO algorithm to solve the optimal power flow problem is given. The numeric simulation for a 5-bus system shows that this algorithm is feasible to solve optimal power flow problem.
