A Novel Improved Sea-Horse Optimizer for Tuning Parameter Power System Stabilizer

Abstract

Power system stabilizer (PSS) is applied to dampen system oscillations so that the frequency does not deviate beyond tolerance. PSS parameter tuning is increasingly difficult when dealing with complex and nonlinear systems. This paper presents a novel hybrid algorithm developed from incorporating chaotic maps into the sea-horse optimizer. The algorithm developed is called the chaotic sea-horse optimizer (CSHO). The proposed method is adopted from the metaheuristic method, namely the sea-horse optimizer (SHO). The SHO is a method that duplicates the life of a sea-horse in the ocean when it moves, looks for prey and breeds. In This paper, The CSHO method is used to tune the power system stabilizer parameters on a single machine system. The proposed method validates the benchmark function and performance on a single machine system against transient response. Several metaheuristic methods are used as a comparison to determine the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method. From the research, it was found that the application of the logistics Tent map from the chaotic map showed optimal performance. In addition, the application of the PSS shows effective and efficient performance in reducing overshoot in transient conditions.

“…The damping torque on the engine rotor will be regulated by PSS with the aim of producing a compensation between the electric torque and the excitation input [27]. PSS will output a value proportional to the rotor speed.…”
