Hierarchical control theory and its application to power system automation

Based on analyzing hierarchical control theory proposed by Saridis, this paper compared the architecture of human-simulated intelligent control (HSIC) theory and electric power automation system (EPAS); it also introduced the application sample of HSIC in the generator excitation control process briefly. It points out that there is an interaction and a promoting relationship between them and it will heighten the intelligence level of EPAS and improve the theory of HSIC by studying the application of HSIC in EPAS field.
