Abstract

This study suggests a new control system for frequency regulation in AC microgrids. Unlike to the most studies, challenging conditions such as variation of wind speed, multiple load disturbance, unknown dynamics and variable solar radiation are taken to account. To cope with uncertainties, a novel dynamic general type-2 (GT2) fuzzy logic system (FLS) by an optimized secondary membership is suggested. The secondary membership and rule parameters of dynamic GT2-FLS are online tuned through the adaptive optimization rules. The optimization rules are determined such that the robustness and stability to be guaranteed. Also, a new compensator is presented to tackle with estimation error and perturbations. The simulations verify that schemed controller outperforms than conventional methods. (C) 2020 ISA. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
