Automatic Generation Control-A Review

Authors(3) :-Anu Chaudhary, Mohan Kashyap, Satish Kansal

Automatic Generation Control is necessary for reliable & continuous operation of power system which is obtained by using different controllers. For efficient operation of the system, optimization of the different controlling parameters is necessary which can be obtained by using optimization techniques. Some of these techniques like genetic algorithm, BF, PSO etc. are discussed and a review is presented.
