拡張H_∞制御を用いた多地域電力システムの周波数制御

抄録

In this study, the extended H_∞, control, proposed in Ref. 6), is applied to the frequency control of a multi area power generation plant. More specifically, we consider a two area electric power generation system, with two generators, two loads and a tie-line connecting them. The purpose is to reject the frequency deviations due to step load disturbance.
This is an interesting control problem because of the existence of a zero at s=0 in the multivariable plant that imposes a constraint on the steady state output y (∞). The paper discusses how to construct a suitable generalized plant for such a problem in order to design an H∞ optimized control system that is able to reject step load disturbances asymptotically.
Using the H_∞ approach, the controller is derived to achieve the disturbance rejection and to be robust to parameter uncertainty of the plant. The performances of the extended H∞ controller and the LQG controller are compared. It is shown that the H_∞ controller is superior to the LQG controller in both nominal case and perturbed case.
