Fractional Order Sliding Mode Controller Fed Load-Frequency Control of Multi-Area Deregulated Power System Network

Abstract

This paper presents a Fractional Order Sliding Mode Controller (FOSMC) for load frequency control of multi area power system in deregulated environment. In deregulated power system the design of controller is more complicated due to contracted and un-contracted load demands. This proposed controller shall take care of system nonlinearities and uncertainties under bilateral contract scenario for sudden load disturbances. The performance of proposed controller compared to PI controller and without any controller.
