Abstract :
This paper investigates the effect of time delays on the stability of a two-area automatic generation control (AGC) system. The time delays are due to the use of measurement devices and communication links for sending and receiving control signals. The maximum amount of time delay known as the delay margin that the system can tolerate without becoming unstable is determined using Matlab/Simulink. The effect of integral controller gain on delay margin is analyzed.
