In order to overcome this problem and to further enhance the performance of Particle Swarm Optimization. this paper implements a hybrid algorithm. Bacterial Swarm Optimization, combining the features of Bacterial Foraging Optimization and Particle Swarm Optimization The PID parameters of classical and fractional-order controllers are optimized with Bacterial Swann Optimization for load frequency control of a two area power system. Simulation results show fractional-order PID controller has less settling time and less overshoot than the classical PID controller for most of studies.
