Abstract :
This paper presents a gain-scheduling adaptive control scheme of a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) in AC electrified railway systems by means of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). A STATCOM with the PSO-implemented controller is considered to reduction harmonic distortion and voltage fluctuations for AC traction loads.
