In the literature, different approaches that are employed in designing automatic voltage regulators (AVRs) usually model the AVR as a single-input-single-output system, where the input is the generator reference voltage, and the output is the generator voltage. Alternately, it could be thought of as a double-input, single-output system, with the excitation voltage change serving as the additional input. In this paper, unlike in the existing literature, we designed the AVR system as a sextuple-input single-output (6ISO) system. The inputs in the model include the generator reference voltage, regulator signal change, exciter signal change, amplifier signal change, generator output signal change, and the sensor signal change. We also compared the generator voltage responses for various structural configurations and regulator parameter choices reported in the literature. The effectiveness of numerous controllers is investigated; the proportional, integral and differential (PID) controller, the PID with second-order derivative (PIDD2) controller, and the fractional order PID (FOPID) controller are the most prevalent types of controllers. The findings reveal that the regulator signal change and the generator output signal change significantly impact the generator voltage. Based on these findings, we propose a new approach to design the regulator parameter to enhance the response to generator reference voltage changes. This approach takes into consideration changes in the generator reference voltage as well as the regulator signal. We calculate the regulator settings using a cutting-edge hybrid technique called the Particle Swarm Optimization African Vultures Optimization algorithm (PSO–AVOA). The effectiveness of the regulator design technique and the proposed optimization algorithm are demonstrated.
