Title: Distributed Robust Adaptive Frequency Control of Power Systems With Dynamic Loads

Journal Article · · IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control

Here, we investigate the frequency control of multimachine power systems subject to uncertain and dynamic net loads. We propose distributed internal model controllers that coordinate synchronous generators and demand response to tackle the unpredictable nature of net loads. Frequency stability is formally guaranteed via Lyapunov analysis. Numerical simulations on the IEEE 68-bus test system demonstrate the effectiveness of the controllers.
