Wide-Area Active Frequency Control with Multi-Step-Size MPC by Yan Xie, Shiying Ma, Jiakai Shen, Xiaojun Tang, Jianmiao Ren, Liwen Zheng

“…To address these shortcomings, this paper proposes an improved AFC method based on multi-step-size model predictive control (MSS-MPC). Through multi-step-size discretization, an improved model predictive control algorithm for AFC is derived based on the iterative solution of the multi-step-size linear quadratic regulator model, which ensures control accuracy through precise prediction and enhances the control performance through additional prediction. …”
