Abstract

A novel optimization algorithm by combining the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm and the sequential quadratic programming (SQP), that is the gradient based ABC algorithm, is presented to resolve the problems of global optimization and inter-area oscillations damping in power system. The proposed algorithm merges the global exploration ability of the artificial bee colony to converge quickly to a near optimum resolution, and the correct local exploitation capacity of the sequential quadratic programming to accelerate the search process and discover a correct solution. To show the feasibility and efficiency of the new method, numerical result is investigated on the New England system by tuning a power system stabilizer and a controller for the static VAR compensator. The proposed gradient based ABC algorithm is compared with ABC. The simulations studies demonstrate that the proposed algorithm based designed damping controllers perform better than controller designed by ABC.
