| dc.description.abstract | This paper presents a coordinated network controller
whose objective is to maintain an optimal voltage profile across
radial distribution networks with distributed generation. This is
done by varying the output of the distributed generators. The
controller was modeled as an optimization problem which was
solved using Particle Swarm Optimization. The IEEE 33-bus and
69-bus test networks are then used to verify the effectiveness of
the controller. The results obtained show that this controller can
improve the voltage profile of a power network. | en_US |
