Abstract

Feeding electric loads independent of power utilities is an important task that is done by using a stand-alone synchronous generator (alternator). Automatic regulation of the output voltage of these alternators is necessary, especially if the load demand changes over a wide range. Many schemes are offered in the literature for such an automatic voltage regulator (AVR). This letter introduces an AVR based on recently developed artificial intelligence tools for modeling and control.
