Fault-Tolerant Model Predictive Load Frequency Control for Power Systems with Electrolytic Aluminum Load Under New Event-triggered Mechanism

In this paper, the problem of event-based fault-tolerant model predictive load frequency control is investigated for the power system where the electrolytic aluminum load participates in frequency modulation and actuator faults. A dynamic event-triggered mechanism containing an internal dynamic variable (IDV) and an adjustable variable is designed to reduce the data transmission burden. The fault-tolerant model predictive control (FTMPC) problem is expressed as a "min-max" optimization problem (OP). According to the Lyapunov-like function that depends on the IDV, an auxiliary OP with constrained linear matrix inequalities is constructed. By solving the auxiliary OP, the FTMPC controller gains that ensure the input-to-state stability of the closed-loop system can be obtained. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified through a simulation example.
