Abstract :
This is the purpose of this paper to design of
multi-machine Static VAR Compensator (SVC) using
Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA). The SVC
parameters designing problem is converted to an
optimization problem in which the Integral of Time
multiply Absolute Error (ITAE) of the speed deviations of
machines used as the fitness function. The effectiveness
of the proposed approach is confirmed on multi-machine
power systems over a wide range of loading conditions.
The results of tuned SVC controller based on ICA
(ICASVC) is compared with particle swarm optimization
based SVC (PSOSVC) through some performance to
demonstrate its strong efficiency. The superiority of the
proposed tuned controller is verified by giving better
damping performance.
