This paper presents a new approach for designing multi-input-single-output (MISO) damping controller for a TCSC in a multi-machine power system. The damping controller design uses particle swarm optimization (PSO) to determine the coefficients of single or multi-stage lead-lag compensators. The classical technique works well in the design of lead-lag compensators for SISO controllers. But, there is no proper step-by-step procedure to achieve the desired performance characteristics for a MISO controller. Hence, in this paper, a computational optimization tool has been used to determine the optimal gains and time constants of a linear MISO damping controller. The damping controller is implemented …

In this paper, a novel reinforcement learning neural network (NN)-based controller, referred to adaptive critic controller, is proposed for general multi-input and multi- output affine unknown nonlinear discrete-time systems in the presence of bounded disturbances. Adaptive critic designs consist of two entities, an action network that produces optimal solution and a critic that evaluates the performance of the action network. The critic is termed adaptive as it adapts itself to output the optimal cost-to-go function and the action network is adapted simultaneously based on the information from the critic. In our online learning method, one NN is designated as the …

In this paper, a novel neural network (NN) based online reinforcement learning controller is designed for nonaffine nonlinear discrete-time systems with bounded disturbances. The nonaffine systems are represented by nonlinear auto regressive moving average with exogenous input (NARMAX) model with unknown nonlinear functions. An equivalent affine-like representation for the tracking error dynamics is developed first from the original nonaffine system. Subsequently, a reinforcement learning-based neural network (NN) controller is proposed for the affine-like nonlinear error dynamic system. The control scheme consists of two NNs. One NN is designated as the critic, which approximates a predefined long-term cost function, whereas an …
