As I am working on the research paper “ DISTRIBUTED VOLTAGE CONTROL

ALGORITHM USING COOPERATIVE GAME THEORY AND MODEL

PREDICTIVE CONTROL” which is made by Arif. The purpose of the thesis is to
improvement of the system voltage and to do so he divided his work into the
following objectives.

1) In the first approach, the system is first decoupled into four independent
regions and a gameplay is modeled between the generators of each of the
regions to optimally set terminal voltage set-points and judiciously balance
reactive power maximization and voltage profile improvement. The four
regions are then used together to model a second-level gameplay for system-
wide minimization of voltage deviation and maximization of reactive power
reserves.

2) The second objective is to develop another decentralized voltage control

approach using model predictive control (MPC), which includes only
secondary voltage regulation. In this approach a large power system was
first decoupled into four autonomous regions. Representative (or pilot) buses
were identified in each region. These pilot buses were used as states to
model the system using MPC. By optimizing the MPC objective function,
we arrive at a dynamic controller that provides the optimal voltage set-points
in the event of slow perturbations or load changes.

a) The third objective is to coordinate the MPC based decentralized voltage-

controlled areas using cooperative game theoretic approach in TVR level.
The game theoretic TVR enables better coordination between the regions
and further improvements in voltage profile by updating the pilot bus
reference voltage set-points for SVR.

Last week I studied in the following sections

A) MPC: When we have a multiple disturbance variables, multiple constraints,

multiple simultaneous manipulated variables, or multiple optimums on a
continuous process there we need to use MPC. And one of the significant
roles of MPC is an advance control technique where both future predictions
and current measurements are considered. In this research state space
prediction model is used.
B) state space prediction model: From the common discrete state space model
we can simply predict one step ahead prediction and through this we can
calculate n-step ahead prediction.
