Dissipative constraint-based multi-area power system with time-varying delays and cyber-attacks.

This work describes the dissipative constraint-based load frequency control problem for multi-area power system under load disturbances. Particularly, a new model incorporating time-varying delays and cyber-attacks are widespread in communication networks, significantly impacting control and stability. Consequently, the state-space equations of the addressed model are formulated and analyzed under the impact of false data injection attacks, and time-varying delays. The analysis is simplified by representing cyber-attacks using nonlinear functions adhering to Lipschitz continuity, while possible cyber-attacks are characterized by stochastic parameters conforming to Bernoulli distributions. Followed by the above information, stochastic analysis and Lyapunov-Krasovskii stability theory, the convex optimization problem is formulated. As a consequence, the load frequency control gains were effectively constructed, confirming that the established power model is stochastically stable and strictly (Q,S,R)-γ-dissipative. Finally, the case studies are employed to examine the usefulness of the suggested scheme.
