Intelligent adaptive frequency regulation of interconnected power networks under renewable uncertainty and time delays
摘要
This paper proposes a novel adaptive control framework for load frequency regulation (LFC) in modern power systems with renewable energy integration and communication delays. A Single Perceptron Proportional–Integral (SPPI) controller optimized using Harmony Search (HS) is designed for single-area systems, while a cascaded SPPI–PID structure is developed for two-area networks. Unlike conventional fixed-parameter controllers, the proposed approach adapts online to varying operating conditions and disturbances. Simulation studies under step load changes, random load variations, and wind power fluctuations demonstrate superior performance of the proposed controllers. For single-area systems, the SPPI controller achieves overshoot as low as
