This paper proposes an adaptive controller for load-frequency control
of interconnected power systems. The proposed controller uses a signal
synthesis adaptation approach such that the performance of the contro
lled system is insensitive to the changing load and system parameter v
ariations. It is designed such that only the outputs of the controlled
plant are fed back to the controller. A reduced reference model is us
ed to simplify the design, making the controller easier to implement.
The effectiveness of the proposed controller is illustrated by digital
simulation of an interconnected power system consisting of a hydro pl
ant and a steam plant. The results show that the performance of the pr
oposed controller is comparable with that obtained from a full state f
eedback optimal controller, and the performance is rather insensitive
to the variations of system parameters.
