Early used stabilizers, conventional power system
stabilizer(CPSS), relied on xed lag-lead compensators tuned using a
linear-ized power system model for a specic operating point [3,4].
Sincepower systems are highly nonlinear with congurations
andparameters changing with time, CPSS cannot handle large
changesin operating conditions. Adaptive power system stabilizers
havebeen proposed [5,6] to adequately deal with these varying
operat-ing conditions. Adaptive stabilizers provide better dynamic

perfectly known parameters as [25,26] or addresssingle machine
systems [27,28].
In the design of the proposed stabilizer, generator speed
devia-tion and its derivative are selected as input signals to a
fuzzy logicsystem that approximates unknown nonlinear functions of
thepower system model and PI control term is used to eliminate
chat-tering phenomenon in the design of SMC. Based on the
Lyapunovtheory, adaptation laws are developed to make the fuzzy
slidingmode controller adaptive and the PI parameters can be tuned
on-line by adaptation law to take care of the changes due to the
vary-ing operating conditions and to guarantee power system
stability.
It is clear that speed deviation and electrical power are
easilymeasurable directly. For this reason, we have chosen the
slidingmode surface according to these variables, on the other hand
in[29,30] the authors use the rotor angle, delta which is more
deli-cate to measure. High order sliding modes (HOSM), in our
opinion,are also computationally far more demanding and not as
straightforward as our proposed controller.
The authors in [29,30] propose HOSM for multi-machine
powersystems, in which they assume that all machine parameters
areprecisely known and use an observer to estimate the
non-measur-able states system. In our work, the nonlinear functions
describingthe power system are not known and system parameters are
con-sidered known imprecisely which is more realistic than relying
onan exact mathematical system model hard if not impossible to
ac-quire. Actual speed deviation and accelerating power of the
associ-ated generator are obtained on-line and are used as inputs
to thefuzzy logic systems. Moreover PI parameters can be tuned
on-line.
The performance of the newly designed controller is evaluatedin
a two-area four machine power system under different typesof
disturbances in comparison with the indirect adaptive fuzzypower
system stabilizer approach (AFPSS). Simulation results showthe
effectiveness and robustness of the proposed stabilizer inenhancing
power system oscillations damping under various dis-turbances.
Moreover, it outperforms other types of PSS consideredin this
paper.
2. Multi-machine power system model
In order to design the power system controller proposed in
thispaper, the generator dynamics model can be expressed in a
canon-ical form given in [31], using speed variation (x1) and the
acceler-ating power (x2) are used as state variables and can be
measured.The synchronous machine system model can be represented
inthe following non-linear state-space equations form:
D _xi 12Hi DPi12Hi
D _Pi fiDxi;DPi giDxi;DPiuiyi Dxi 1
where x1i = Dxi =xi x0 is the speed deviation and x2i = DPi =Pmi
Pei is the accelerating power, xi is the angular speed in perunits,
Hi is the per unit machine inertia constant, Pmi is the mechan-ical
input power treated as a constant in the excitation
controllerdesign and Pei is delivered electrical power. Eq. (1)
represents themachine during a transient period after a major
disturbance has oc-curred in the system. It has been assumed that
two nonlinear func-tions fi and gi can be found [12,32]:
_Pei 2Hif x1i; x2i gx1i; x2iui 2It is known that a positive u
will cause a positive change in Pei, -
i.e. _Pei > 0 whenever ui > 0. This means that g is a
negative function.gi(x1i, x2i) < 0 for all x1i, x2i.
In generic terms, the equation set (1) for ith generator is
_x1 ax2a _x2 f x1; x2 gx1; x2uy x1 3where a = 1/2H and x = [x1,
x2]T = [Dx, DP]T 2 R2 is a measurablestate vector. PSS output u
represents the supplementary control sig-nal to be designed and y =
Dx is the considered output while f and gare nonlinear system
functions assumed unknown.
3. Indirect adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control based PSS
design
3.1. Sliding mode control design
The control objective is to force y in the system (3) to track
abounded desired trajectory yd, under the constraint that all
vari-ables involved must be bounded. The control objective [31,33]
isto determine a feedback control u = u(x|h) and an adaptation
lawfor adjusting the parameters vector h, such that:
(i) The closed loop systemmust be globally stable and robust
inthe sense that all variables x(t), h(t) and u(x|h), must be
uni-formly bounded, i.e., |x| 6Mx 61, |h| 6Mh 61 and|u| 6Mu 61 for
all tP 0, where Mx,Mh and Mu are parame-ters designer specied.
(ii) The tracking error, e = y yd, should be as small as
possibleunder the previous constraints.
The elaboration of an indirect adaptive fuzzy sliding mode
con-troller achieving the above control objectives is presented in
therest of this section [23,24].
Let the tracking error be dened as e y yd e; _eT and a slid-ing
surface dened as se k1e _e kTe, where k = [k1, 1]T are
thecoefcients of the Hurwitz polynomial hk k k1 If the initialerror
vector e(t0) = 0, then the tracking problem can be consideredas the
state error vector e remaining on the sliding surface s(e) = 0for
all t > t0.
A sufcient condition to achieve this behavior is to select a
con-trol strategy such that:
12
ddt
s2e 6 gjsj gP 0 4
From (4), we have
_s k1 _e y yd k1 _e f x gxu yd:

If f and g are known, we can easily construct the sliding
modecontrol u* = ueq usw
u 1gx k1 _e f x gsgns yd 6
ueq 1gx k1 _e f x yd 7
usw 1gx gsgns 8
However, power system parameters are not well known
andimprecise; therefore it is difcult to implement the control
law(6) for unknown nonlinear system model. Not only f and g are
un-known but the switching-type control term will cause
chattering.An adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller using fuzzy
logic systemand PI control term is proposed to solve these
problems.
3.2. Fuzzy logic system
In this section, the fuzzy logic system used is briey
described.The basic conguration of the fuzzy logic systems [33]

Rsdt, kp and ki are PI control gains. Eq. (13) can be
rewritten as
p^hjhp hTpwh 14where hp = [kp, ki]T 2 R2 is an adjustable
parameter vector, andwT(h) = [h1, h2] 2 R2 is a regressive vector.
We use fuzzy logic sys-tems to approximate the unknown functions
f(x), g(x) and designan adaptive PI control term eliminate
chattering due to slidingmode control. Hence, the control law
becomes:
u 1g^xjhg k1
_e f^ xjhf p^hjhp yd 15
f^ xjhf hTf nx 16
g^xjhg hTgnx 17In order to avoid the chattering problem, the
switching term is
replaced by a PI control action which changes continuously
andwill lead to smooth out of the chattering effect when the state
iswithin a boundary layer |s|

4.3. On-line adaptation

andimprove stability in the power system (3), where f^ xjhf is
givenby (16), g^xjhg is given by (17) and p^hjhp is given by
(14).
