Abstract: Power system oscillations are the major

crises in a large interconnected network. It certainly

affects the power system stability and remains a

challenge for scheduling and planning of the power

demand in a deregulated market. This paper represents

the Hybrid Krill Herd-Genetic Algorithm (KH-GA)

optimization method based on global optimization for

analyzing the stability of multi-machine power system.

The two algorithms are inspired by biological and

environmental characterization. A typical three

generator nine bus benchmark power system is

considered for small signal stability analysis using

MATLAB/Simulink. The angular frequency in a power

system is affected by deviation in power generation,

variation in load, and faults. The angular frequency

deviation causes fluctuation in generator speed and rotor

angle leading to electromechanical oscillations ina

power system. So, the deviation in angular frequency is

considered as a reliable parameter for the stability study

of the system. Several optimization techniques such as

Firefly, Cuckoo and Krill Herd (KH)algorithms are

employed for the coordinated tuning of power system

stabilizer (PSS) and Static Synchronous Series

Compensator (SSSC) along with proposed Hybrid

KH-GA algorithm to improve transient stability of the

power system. The capability of the suggested Hybrid

KH-GA algorithm is validated with the other

optimization techniques taken into consideration. The

simulated results show higher convergence rate and

better low frequency oscillation (LFO) damping

capability.

1. Introduction

According to power systems, the electrical utilities often

encounter a stability problem. Power system inter

connection imposes a different kind of oscillations to the

power system. To ensure better stability, the frequency

and terminal voltage of the power system needs to be

maintained at their rated values [1]. In order to minimize

these oscillations and increase the system dynamic

stability, the most convincing and reliable solution is to

install a PSS in the generator excitation system.

However, the application of PSSs has limitations for

damping of inter-area oscillations and nonlinear systems

[2- 4].

A Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS)

has numerous advantages in comparison with

conventional PSS. FACTS controllers use the

application of high power solid state devices for

Sub-synchronous Resonance (SSR) mitigation, voltage

regulation, real power flow enhancement, and Low

Frequency Oscillation (LFO) damping [5]. The wide

application of the voltage source converter (VSC)based

FACTS controllers are better choices for improving the

power systems stability. SSSC finds an important part

for its robustness and capability to vary the reactance

characteristics between capacitive region to inductive

region which gives the strength to improve the real

power flow and damp the LFOs. Apart from its

robustness and reliability, SSSC can also perform

various tasks in stability studies, schedule power flow,

minimize net power loss, and enhance overall stability

[6].

Heuristic and meta-heuristic optimization

algorithms are the two major classifications of stochastic

optimization technique. Heuristic algorithms reach the

solution in quick time but no guarantee for best solution

is reached [7]. A meta-heuristic algorithm uses the

randomization and local search makes it convenient for

global search. The best examples of Meta- heuristic

techniques are Genetic Algorithm (GA),Particle Swarm

Optimization (PSO), Firefly Algorithm (FA), Cuckoo

Algorithm (CA) and Bat Algorithm (BA) [8]. Optimal

settings of rule-based PSS using PSO search have been

discussed in [9]. Multi-machine PSS with a Multi-

objective design using PSO is considered in [10]. The

3. Hybrid KH-GA Technique

A. KHA

The KHA is a biologically inspired meta-heuristic

optimization algorithm inspired by herding nature of the

krill swarm. Krill swarm has a tendency to find a place

where highest food density is available with minimum

distance. In a two-dimensional surface, the time stamped

movements of an individual krill is identified by three

important activity [21]; (1) Movement induced by other

krill individuals, (2) Foraging activity and (3) Random

diffusion.

The KHA uses Lagrangian model to expand the

search area to an n-dimensional decision space as: �I�+ � J� � K� � �� (9)

Where, Ni indicates the movement of ith krill

induced by neighbors, Fi represents the foraging

behavior of ith krill individual and Di denotes the

physical diffusion of ith krill individual[22].

Description of basic KHA technique as discussed

below:

(1) Motion induced by other krill individuals According to krill nature of living, individual krill

attracted by other krills mutually to form a large krill

swarm. The direction of motion induced ( L� ), is

estimated from local swarm density (local effect), target

swarm density (target effect), and repulsive swarm

density (repulsive effect). The motion of the krill

individual can be estimated as:

J�M�N � J�OPL� � �MJ�$Q� (10)

Where:

L� � L�Q$HOQ � L�+O*R�+ (11)

Where, J�M�N is the new induced speed of ith krill,

Nmax is the maximum induced speed, ωn refers inertia

weight of motion induced (between 0 to 1 second), J�$Q�

is the last motion induced, L�Q$HOQ refers local effect

contributed by neighbors, and L�+O*R�+ indicates target

direction effect contributed by best individual krill.

The sensing distance S. between krill individuals and

neighbors is found by their behavior.

S.,� � �U5 ∑ W � � XW5XY� (12)

Where,S.,� denotes the sensing distance for the ith

krill and N refers number of krill and Xi indicates the

related positions of ith krill. If the distance of (Xi-Xj)

<S.,� then Xjis the neighbor of Xi.

(2) Foraging motion

The krill neighbors are induced and attracted towards

best food location and also possess previous knowledge

about the food location. This activity of krills is referred

as Foraging Motion.

The foraging activity of the ith krill is expressed as:

K� � )�Z� � ��K�$Q� (13)

Where:

Z� � Z��$$� � Z�[�.+ (14)

Where,Vf denotes foraging speed, ωf denotes

inertia weight of the motion induced (between 0 to

1),Fiold is the last foraging motion value,Z��$$�

is the

attractive food, and Z�[�.+ denotes the optimal fitness of

an ith krill so far.

The core of the food density is found by the fitness

distribution for every iteration is expressed as:

�$$� � ∑ \]I_\

∑ \]_\

(15)

Where, �$$� denotes the core region of food

density, Ki refers fitness value of ith krill individual.

(3) Physical diffusion

Every krill individuals physically diffuse

themselves randomly. The ith krill motion depends on

maximum diffusion speed and a random directional

vector. The expression of Di is as follows:

�� � ��OP `1 � 44bcde � (16)

Where, Dmax is the maximum diffusion speed, � is the

random directional vector, I refers the actual iteration

number and Imax indicates the maximum iteration

number.

(4) Motion process of KHA The movements of the individual krills are always

approaches towards best fitness value. This algorithm

utilizes local and global conditions makes it most

efficient one. The positional vector during the interval t

to t+∆g can be denoted as:

�:g � ∆gA � �:gA � ∆g �I�+ (17)

Where, �:g � ∆gA denotes the updated krill

individual position, and �:gA represents the current

position of the krills. The ∆gis an important operator in

tuning the optimization problem. The ∆g constant is

considered as a scaling parameter for the speed vector. It

is expressed as:

∆g � h+ ∑ �,ij � kiX!56XY� (18)

Where, NV refers total count of variables, kiXand

,ijare the lower bound and upper bound of jth variables

(j = 1, 2….NV). A constant number Ct is carefully

chosen between the values 0 and 2. The low values of

Ctdirect the krills to search the space more carefully.

The KHA has been analyzed for so many

non-linear multi-objective systems in end result it

cannot always produce optimal solutions in global

search space [21-23]. Since the KHA applies random

search and it cannot rapidly finds the optimal solution.

B.GA

The GA is an efficient heuristic technique which finds

best solution for the complex non-linear problems [24].

It effectively searches the various regions of a solution

space and finds a numerous set of solutions even for

complex problems [21-24]. The important aspect of this

algorithm is the genetic operators. They are (i)

Selection, (ii) Crossover, and (iii) Mutation. These

operators are intending to produce the best child by

random selection of best mates (studs) [23].

The reproduction steps are as follows,

(i) Rearrange two stud particles (Random selection)

(ii) Check the divergence according to Hamming

interval between the rearranged stud and current mate:

1. If the diversity is greater than the set threshold,

perform crossover to generate one offspring.

2. If the diversity is less than the set threshold, mutate

the current mate to generate the new child.

The conventional GA is customized by choosing

the best mate (stud) to produce the best child is framed

as Stud Genetic Algorithm (SGA). The selected stud is

combining genetically with other stud individuals

through the genetic operators like crossover and

mutation to produce new population [23].

(1) Function of Genetic operators The crossover operation is based on binomial crossover

method to update the mth components of ith krill by the

following expression:

�,� � l *,�mn@S�,� < h* �,� qr=q s (19)

Where: h* � 0.2'v�,[�.+ (20)

Where, h* is the crossover probability, which is

randomly selected between 0 and 1.

The Mutation operation is depends on the principle of

adaptive mutation scheme. It is expressed as:

�,� � w R[�.+,� � x� -,� � �,�!mn@S�,� < �y �,� qr=q s

C. Proposed Hybrid KH–GA Algorithm

The purposed Hybrid KH-GA optimization algorithm is

a novel hybrid technique combining the KHA and GA.

Since KHA cannot find optimal solution always in

global search area but the existence of genetic operators

certainly helps to refine the search locally in a global

search space and quickly converges the ideal solution.

Hence, the hybrid KH-GA optimization technique

definitely accelerates convergence speed.

is displayed in Fig. 4.

D. Implementation of objective Function

An objective function (Fitness function) is a

mathematical expression which is taken as an input

parameter for an optimization algorithm. The objective

function for a standard three generator nine bus system

with an integrated PSS and SSSC stabilizer is designed.

In this research, Objective function is formulated on the

basis of two performance indices namely Integral of a

Time-multiplied Absolute value of Error (ITAE) and

Integral Square Error (ISE).The ISE index minimizes

the overshoot and ITAE reduces the steady state error.

The performance indices are intended to achieve the

quick settling time and to minimize the LFOs. However,

the overall stability of a test system can be improved by

minimizing the speed deviations of generators. Hence

the integration of speed variations of the generators is

considered as an objective function. The objective

function is given by,

} � ~ g�|�2 � �1| � |�3 � �1| Sg+� (23)

Where, J indicates objective function, t is the total

simulation time, ω1, ω2, and ω3 are speeds of generators

G1, G2, and G3 respectively.

In this research, an objective function is provided

in Eq. (23) is taken as an input parameter for the

purposed Hybrid KH-GA Algorithm for optimal

location of SSSC and to boost the damping effect tand

also system stability.

4. Results and Discussion

The three generator nine bus system is designed for the

stability analysis. The generators G2 and G3 are

installed with PSS and generator G1 connected with a

simple exciter. The efficiency of the test system is

analyzed under different load settings given in Table

1.1. The non-linear time zone simulation is executed

using Matlab/Simulink programming for a three phase

fault.

Let us consider, If a three phase to ground fault

occurs at bus 7 at t = 0.5 sec. The element Y77 is

increased 1000 times to represent very high admittance

to ground in order to simulate this fault . The fault is

cleared at t = 0.6 sec. The fault clearance is simulated by

restoring the value of Y77 to its pre-fault value at t = 0.6

sec

A. Nominal Loading Condition

The efficiency of proposed optimization technique for

the integrated controller is validated with the test system

under nominal loading. The Fig. 5.1(a), (b) & (c)

represents the rotor angle deviations of Generator 1, 2

and 3 with respect to synchronous angular speed. Due to

the large disturbance, the sustained oscillations start

grows and cause stability issue if the system may not

install a controller. Whereas, the test system with

optimally located SSSC show better damping effect to

the LFO’s when correlated with other optimization

algorithms. The time taken to attain steady state

condition of these oscillations is also very good for the

system optimized by Hybrid KH-GA. Power flow

results after installing SSSC is listed in Table 1.2.

The objective function (J) is effectively minimized

by adopting proposed optimization technique. The

convergence rate of the different optimization

techniques are displayed in Fig.5.3 (d). It is clearly

evident that proposed Hybrid KH-GA algorithm

converges in fewer iterations and the objective function

(Fitness function) is also minimized effectively. Hence

the purposed algorithm finds the best location of SSSC,

and also reduces the electro mechanical oscillations

effectively.

5. Conclusions

In this research, a coordinated control of PSS and SSSC

is discussed. An objective function is effectively

minimized using Hybrid KH-GA technique for finding

best location of SSSC so as to minimize the power

oscillation. The non-linear system with a coordinated

controller is simulated through MATLAB/Simulink to

assess the influence of the purposed algorithm. The

soundness of the purposed coordinated controller is

investigated by testing its performance under normal,

heavy and light load settings. The simulated results

reveal that the dynamic performance and LFO damping

capability are significantly enhanced by optimal

placement of SSSC. Therefore, the purposed algorithm

provides a better power oscillation damping effect to the

integrated PSS and SSSC controller and improves the

overall stability.
