Stabilization of load frequency control system under networked environment

The deregulation of the electricity market made, the open communication infrastructure an exigent need for, future power system. In this scenario dedicated, communication links are replaced by shared networks., These shared networks are characterized by random time, delay and data loss. The random time delay and data loss, may lead to system instability if they are not considered, during the controller design stage. Load frequency control, systems used to rely on dedicated communication links. To, meet future power system challenges these dedicated, networks will be replaced by open communication links, which make the system stochastic. In this paper the, stochastic stabilization of load frequency control system, under networked environment is investigated. The shared, network is represented by three states which are governed, by Markov chains. A controller synthesis method based on, the stochastic stability criteria is presented in the paper. A. one-area load frequency control system is chosen as case, study. The effectiveness of the proposed method for the, controller synthesis is tested through simulation. The, derived PI controller proves to be optimum where it is a, compromise between compensating the random time delay, effects and degrading the dynamic performance.
