Although the PI or PID (PI/PID) controllers have many advantages, their control performance may be degraded when the controlled object is highly nonlinear and uncertain; the main problem is related to static nature of fixed-gain PI/PID controllers. This work aims to propose a wavelet neural adaptive proportional plus conventional integral-derivative (WNAP+ID) controller to solve the PI/PID controller problems. To create an adaptive nature for PI/PID controller and for online processing of the error signal, this work subtly employs a one to one offline trained self-recurrent wavelet neural network as a processing unit (SRWNN-PU) in series connection with the fixed-proportional gain of conventional PI/PID controller. Offline training of the SRWNN-PU can be performed with any virtual training samples, independent of plant data, and it is thus possible to use a generalized SRWNN-PU for any systems. Employing a SRWNN-identifier (SRWNNI), the SRWNN-PU parameters are then updated online to process the error signal and minimize a control cost function in real-time operation. Although the proposed WNAP+ID is not limited to power system applications, it is used as supplementary damping controller of static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) of two SSSC-aided power systems to enhance the transient stability. The nonlinear time-domain simulation and system performance characteristics in terms of ITAE revealed that the WNAP+ID has more control proficiency in comparison to PID controller. As additional simulations, the features of the proposed controller are compared to those of the literature while some of its promising features like its fast noise-rejection ability and its high online adapting ability are also highlighted.
