Hybrid Neuro-fuzzy Legendre-based Adaptive Control Algorithm for Static Synchronous Series Compensator

Abstract

Abstract This article presents a novel adaptive non-linear control scheme for a static synchronous series compensator to improve power system stability. The proposed control system synergistically integrates the Legendre polynomial functional neural network, a member of the orthogonal polynomials family, with adaptive neuro-fuzzy Takagi–Sugeno control. The control scheme exploits the online, model-free direct control structure, which reduces the computational complexity, latency, and memory requirements, to make the proposed control strategy highly suitable for real-time implementation. The performance of the proposed control system is validated against different contingencies and operating conditions using non-linear time-domain simulations and different performance indices. The performance of the proposed control system is compared with the adaptive neuro-fuzzy Takagi–Sugeno. The results reveal that the proposed control scheme effectively damps the local and inter-area mode of oscillations.
