Protocol-Based Load Frequency Control for Power Systems With Nonhomogeneous Sojourn Probabilities

This article is concentrated on the load frequency control for interconnected multiarea power systems (IMAPSs) with nonhomogeneous sojourn probabilities (NSPs) and cyber-attacks. A generalized framework of NSPs is formulated to describe the dynamic behavior of IMAPSs. To govern variations of sojourn probabilities, a deterministic switching signal is introduced using the average dwell-time technique. Essentially, different from the existing protocols, an improved event-triggered protocol that is relevant to the dynamic quantizer parameter is presented, thereby increasing triggering intervals. Furthermore, both denial-of-service and deception attacks, which obey Bernoulli distributions, are considered during information transmission. By virtue of the Lyapunov theory, the mean-square exponential stability of the considered systems is established. Finally, the effectiveness of the obtained results is verified via a numerical example.
