The Performance Analysis Of Type-2 Fuzzy Fractional-Order Tilt Integral Derivative Controller With Enhanced Harris Hawks Optimization

Modern Alternating Current (AC) microgrids (ACMGs) are highly complex because of the indeterminate nature of distributed energy generation and load causes frequency fluctuations. It is essential to maintain the constant power amongst load and generations by the proper design of an efficient controller to stabilize frequency fluctuations. In this paper, the type-2 fuzzy fractional-order tilt integral derivative controller structure is designed and analyzed for frequency control of an ACMG by using an enhanced Harris hawks optimization (EHHO). The modified optimization technique is analyzed employing test functions and compared with similar methods. It is noticed that the modified optimization technique is outperforming the other methods in most of the test functions. The frequency control performance of an ACMG is demonstrated and compared with the original Harris hawks optimization (HHO) and other optimization methods. The proposed type-2 fuzzy fractional-order tilt integral derivative controller tuned with EHHO technique is demonstrated to be effective and superior to any of the alternatives by application to a typical two-area test system.
