Imperialist competitive algorithm for optimal STATCOM design in a multimachine power system
This paper proposes ICA for optimal designing of STATCOM. The best location of STATCOM is determined via PV curves. The design problem of STATCOM is formulated as an optimization problem. The superiority of the ICA algorithm is compared with GA and open loop one. The effectiveness of the proposed controller in damping oscillations is confirmed.
