Distributed resilient fault-tolerant cooperative automatic generation control and multi-event triggering mechanism co-design for wind energy conversion power system

Abstract

In wind energy conversion power system, some sensor and actuator fall into abnormal condition which may lead to lower wind energy utilization rate and poor system performance or even system collapse. Meanwhile, with the increasing complexity of wind energy conversion power system, more device nodes compete for limited network communication resources, there are time-delays and packets dropout in data transmission, and these may reduce the efficiency of wind energy conversion. According to above consideration, the multi-event triggering mechanism based distributed resilient fault-tolerant cooperative control scheme for wind energy conversion power system is put forward. A novel model of the wind energy conversion power system is established when the sensor and actuator faults simultaneously. According to Lyapunov stability theory, the sufficient condition for system exponential mean-square stable is obtained. Different from previous fault-tolerant control method, the proposed control strategy considered the wind energy conversion power system with data transmission management under simultaneous stochastic sensor and actuator faults. The simulation demonstrates that the method proposed in this paper is effective and the multi-event triggering mechanism based distributed resilient fault-tolerant controller provides stronger reliability and higher wind energy utilization efficiency.
