A modi ed two-degree of freedom-internal model control con guration for load frequency control of a single area power system

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a modi ed two degree-of-freedom internal model control structure, with dual feedback loop con guration for the load frequency control problem of a single-area power system. Our main objective is to achieve better transient and steady state performance. The predictive model of the proposed con guration is derived through the stability equation method, which preserves the stability of the model. The proposed scheme is simulated for a single-area power system with nonreheated turbine and 50% parametric uncertainty. It is observed from the responses and the performance indices that the proposed control con guration gives better results compared to well-known existing techniques.
