| description | ABSTRACT Load‐frequency control (LFC) is essential for maintaining system stability and ensuring high power quality in microgrids (MGs), particularly those heavily reliant on renewable energy sources (RES) and operating independently of the main grid. This paper introduces a novel control strategy aimed at improving LFC performance in interconnected MGs by correcting the error signal. The proposed controller, denoted as TIDA+1, combines tilt, integrator, derivative, and acceleration operators in a parallel configuration to refine the incoming error signal. The controller parameters are optimized using a modified particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm with nonlinear time‐varying acceleration coefficients (NTVAC). The controller's effectiveness is validated through four distinct scenarios, including sudden load variations, system modeling uncertainties, fluctuations in RES outputs, and the impact of nonlinearities. Additionally, a lab‐scale evaluation of the controller has been conducted to further assess its practical applicability. Comparative results demonstrate that the TIDA+1 controller outperforms traditional controllers such as PID and FOPID, especially under complex operational conditions. The study highlights the TIDA+1 controller as a robust and viable solution for LFC in MGs, with potential for future scalability and application in larger systems. |
