“…Very strong exploitation can cause the slowing down of the exploration, which ultimately leads to premature convergence and an insignificant solution. To deal with this issue and to develop a more efficient algorithm, different search strategies are hybridized in the literature [6,7,9,39,43]. Similarly, the HSA is useful for exploring to find nearby global regions, but it has a problem of searching the local optima [39].…”

“…In a network without distributed generators (DGs), directional overcurrent relays (DOCRs) are a suitable choice for the protection systems because of their ease in functionality and cost-effectiveness. In the last decade, a range of evolutionary algorithms and their hybrid approaches have become recognized as a means for solving the coordination problem of DOCRs [5][6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

This paper introduces a new protection system for solar photovoltaic generator (SPVG)-connected networks. The system is a combination of voltage-restrained overcurrent relays (VROCRs) and directional overcurrent relays (DOCRs). The DOCRs are implemented to sense high fault current on the grid side, and VROCRs are deployed to sense low fault current supplied by the SPVG. Furthermore, a novel challenge for the optimal coordination of DOCRs-DOCRs and DOCRs-VROCRs is formulated. Due to the inclusion of additional constraints of VROCR, the relay coordination problem becomes more complicated. To solve this complex problem, a hybrid Harmony Search Algorithm-Bollinger Bands (HSA-BB) method is proposed. Also, the lower and upper bands in BB are dynamically adjusted with the generation number to assist the HSA in the exploration and exploitation stages. The proposed method is implemented on three different SPVG-connected networks. To exhibit the effectiveness of the proposed method, the obtained results are compared with the genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), cuckoo search algorithm (CSA), HSA and hybrid GA-nonlinear programming (GA-NLP) method. Also, the superiority of the proposed method is evaluated using descriptive and nonparametric statistical tests.

“…New and more comprehensive algorithms such as the hybridation approach have used classical and nature-inspired approaches [21] which have enhanced the convergence and effectiveness of the NIA-heuristic technique. The hybrid type algorithms in general divides the optimization problem into the subproblems, where each subproblem is solved by using a specific algorithm [78]. These techniques are the combination of mathematical and NIA-heuristic or double NIA-heuristic optimization methods, which are widely used to counter a highly constraint DOCR problem [37,[39][40][41].…”

An exponential increase in diverse load demand in the last decade has influenced the integration of more power plants into the power system. This increases the fault current due to the bidirectional flow of current, resulting in unwanted tripping of the relays if not properly coordinated. Therefore, it is imperative to ensure the installation of relays in the grid being able to sense the fault current from any direction (i.e. upstream or downstream). This can be accomplished by introducing an optimal directional overcurrent relay (DOCR) coordination scheme into the system. This paper presents an in-depth review of the applications of various optimization techniques for optimal coordination of directional overcurrent relays (DOCRs) in integrated power networks. The review highlights the advantages and limitations of techniques implemented to mitigate the DOCR coordination issues. Furthermore, potential research directions for optimal DOCR coordination are also discussed in this paper.

“…Hybrid heuristics and mathematical algorithms such as hybrid BBO and LP [23], hybrid GA and LP [27], hybrid PSO and LP [28], hybrid GA and non‐linear programming [29], hybrid gravitational search algorithm and sequential quadratic programming [30], hybrid cuckoo optimisation algorithm and LP [31], a combination of Rosen's gradient projection–complex method with GA–PSO algorithm [32] and hybrid simulated annealing and LP [33] are proposed to solve the DOCRs coordination problem. In [34], a hybrid PSO and integer linear programming is proposed to obtain optimal settings of DOCRs and the proper setting group to activate each relay in each network state.…”
