Power System Stabilizer Design based on Honey-Bee Mating Optimization Algorithm

Abstract

Power system stability is one of the main factors in performance of electrical system. A control system must retain frequency and voltage size under any distortion such as sudden increase in load, to leave a generator from circuit or cut off a transmission line in a constant level. In this paper, Honey-bee mating optimization (HBMO) algorithm has been used to design power system stabilizer. It is based on the mating between queen and bees. Meta-heuristics honey-bee mating optimization algorithm is considered to be an intelligent algorithm. Simulation results show that HBMO algorithm is simple to solve optimization issues.
