Abstract

The nonlinear nature of the system behavior has several disturbances due to which the stability of the system gets affected. Controlled operation of power systems is very critical and the most important factor is to achieve stable power system. For this reason, there is a need of different adaptive control techniques. Therefore, for obtaining lesser modeling error in the system, different intelligent control techniques are used, which improves the power system operation. PID controllers are most commonly used as it is simple in operation. Therefore, several tuning techniques like Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Simulated Annealing (SA) are being used for the optimum setting of PID controller parameters so as to improve the system stability. In this paper, the performance of different PID controller techniques is compared for four error minimization methods and is being applied to the load frequency control model that helps to identify optimum controller for an individual.
