Zielsetzung und Themenschwerpunkte (Objectives and Key Themes)

This dissertation explores the design and implementation of an internal model controller (IMC) for load frequency control (LFC) in a single area power system. The main objective is to enhance the stability and robustness of LFC systems by effectively addressing the challenges of parameter uncertainty and load variations. The dissertation leverages the model order reduction method to simplify the complex model of the power system and facilitate the design of the TDF-IMC scheme.

• Model Order Reduction for LFC Systems
• TDF-IMC Design and Implementation
• Performance Evaluation of Different Approximation Techniques (Pade and Routh)
• Stability and Robustness Analysis of LFC Systems
• Application of MATLAB for Simulation and Analysis
