In this paper, a new hybrid optimization algorithm known as particle swarm optimization and grey wolf optimizer (PSO-GWO) based proportional integral derivative (PID) controller is suggested for automatic voltage regulator (AVR) system terminal tracking problem. The main objective of the suggested approach is to reduce crucial performance factors such as rise time, settling time, peak overshoot and peak time of the voltage of the power system in order to improve the AVR system's transient response. This analysis was compared to results obtained from existing heuristic algorithm-based approaches found in the literature, proving the improved PID controller's enhanced performance obtained through the suggested approach. Furthermore, the performance of the tuned controller with respect to disturbance rejection and its robustness to parametric uncertainties were evaluated separately and compared with existing control approaches. According to the obtained comparison results and from all simulations, using MATLAB-Simulink tool, it has been noted that the PID controller optimized using PSO-GWO algorithm has superior control performance compared to PID controllers tuned by ABC, DE, BBO and PSO algorithms. The main conclusion of the presented study highlights that the recommended strategy can be effectively implemented to improve the performance of the AVR system.
