Resilient Model Free Adaptive Distributed LFC for Multi-Area Power Systems Against Jamming Attacks

This article is concerned with distributed resilient load frequency control (LFC) for multi-area power interconnection systems against jamming attacks. First, considering uncertainties and high dimension nonlinearity, the model-free adaptive control (MFAC) model is adopted for the power system, in which only input and output (I/O) data are used. Second, jamming attacks are modeled in a stochastic process, and a multistep predictive compensation algorithm is developed to mitigate the impact of jamming attacks. Then, the distributed MFAC protocol with predictive compensation algorithm is designed such that the frequency tracking errors under the predictive compensation algorithm of multi-area power interconnection systems converge consensually into a small neighborhood of origin in the mean square sense. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the approach.
