Impacts of system non-linearities on communication delay margin for power systems having open channel communication based automatic generation control

TLDR
Impact of impacts of various non-linearities on communication delay margin for stability of Automatic Generation Control (AGC) of hydro power systems using open channel communication which introduces time delay in the AGC loop is presented.
Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of impacts of various non-linearities on communication delay margin for stability of Automatic Generation Control (AGC) of hydro power systems using open channel communication which introduces time delay in the AGC loop. This delay may lead to system instability. The delay margin depends not only on the secondary controller gains but also on the various non-linearities inherently presently in the AGC loop. To study their impact, these non-linearities are one by one introduced in the AGC of a hydro system and their impacts on critical delay (delay margin) is studied by simulating the system in MATLAB / Simulink by keeping the secondary controller gains constant at a random value to observe the effect only of communication delay and the non-linearities. The non-linearities considered are frequency of AGC execution and governor intentional dead band and governor backlash.

A Particle Swarm Optimization Technique Tuned TID Controller for Frequency and Voltage Regulation with Penetration of Electric Vehicles and Distributed Generations

TL;DR: In this paper , the performance of the fractional-order tilt-integral-derivative (TID) controller is compared with that of a widely used proportional integral derivative controller in all three test systems studies, and the PSO-tuned TID controller is insensitive to variation in load damping factor and time constants of the AVR system.

Technical Communique: Delay-dependent criteria for robust stability of time-varying delay systems

TL;DR: Some new delay-dependent stability criteria are devised by taking the relationship between the terms in the Leibniz-Newton formula into account, which are less conservative than existing ones.

Further Improvement of Free-Weighting Matrices Technique for Systems With Time-Varying Delay

TL;DR: A novel method is proposed in this note for stability analysis of systems with a time-varying delay by considering the additional useful terms when estimating the upper bound of the derivative of Lyapunov functionals and introducing the new free-weighting matrices.
