VSC Based HVDC System for Passive Network with Fuzzy Controller

Abstract

For stable operation of a power system reliable control of active & reactive power is necessary. Voltage source converter based HVDC system bears the advantages of being able to change the control strategy immediately with respect to the active and reactive power changes. In this paper a function based fuzzy control system is proposed for the control of active power, DC voltage at converter station and voltage at inverter station. Basically two input one output methodology based fuzzy logic controller has been proposed. The basic features of proposed system used in VSC based HVDC systems are: 1) only two rule base system is used.2) all controllers are not self correcting. At both stations error and change in error have been taken as input to the controller. Design of high pass filter with FFT analysis has also been proposed for a better dynamic performance of the function based fuzzy controller. Computer simulation using Simulink gives clear result of the performance of the proposed controller.
