| Summary: | This paper considers the problem of the load frequency control of power systems when system states are not directly available for implementation and in the presence of unknown disturbances. The conventional proportional observer (PO) fails to solve this problem unless the disturbances are known or can be explicitly modeled. Therefore, we provide a detailed analysis of the proportional integral observer (PIO) and its generalization (GPIO) for the load frequency control (LFC) of a single-area power system. This study demonstrates that both observers can be reliably employed, depending on the scenarios of system dynamics. Since they are able to estimate both the states and unknown disturbances, they can be integrated in LFC with disturbance accommodation to ensure the system stability and to satisfy the specified performance measures. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the advantage of GPI observer-based LFC for a single-area power system model. |
