Abstract

Nowadays, the influences of the communication structure on the frequency regulation performance in a multi-area power system are barely studied. In this paper, a decentralized frequency regulation method for a multi-area power system considering optimization of communication structure is presented, and the influence of the communication structure on the frequency regulation performance is studied. Firstly, the communication network model is described and the multi-area power system model considering communication structure is presented. Then, the optimization model of communication structure during a decentralized frequency regulation process is constructed. This model aims to speed up the convergence speed of the control together with ensuring the high algebraic connectivity of the communication structure. Quantum binary particle swarm optimization (QB-PSO) algorithm is introduced to solve this model and, based on this, the communication structure optimization process and frequency regulation method are proposed. The simulation results show that the proposed method could greatly improve the frequency control efficiency through the optimization of the communication structure.
