This paper proposes a novel multi‐index nonlinear robust control (MNRC) approach for multi‐machine power systems. The MNRC approach combines multi‐index nonlinear control with theH ∞control theory. With the multi‐index nonlinear control, which selects the output functions as arithmetic combination of state variables, multiple performance indices of the controlled system can be achieved simultaneously in the nonlinear control framework. TheH ∞control is able to ensure that the system possess the desired robust performance during disturbance. Then, excitation and steam‐valving coordinated robust controllers are developed based on the MNRC approach for multi‐machine power systems. The effectiveness of the proposed robust controller is evaluated by a six‐machine power system simulation. Simulation results show that the expected dynamic and steady‐state performances of power system can be achieved with the MNRC approach. Meanwhile, it is able to achieve the prescribed system performance despite the presence of disturbances. © 2016 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
