This work aims to develop a controller based on fuzzy logic to simulate an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) for a synchronous generator. The performance of fuzzy based AVR is tested on Single Machine connected to an Infinite Bus bar system (SMIB) in the MATLAB/SIMULINK platform and the results are compared with the IEEE Exciter model. %K Synchronous Generator %K State space model %K Small-signal stability analysis %K AVR %K Fuzzy logic controller %U http://www.iaesjournal.com/online/index.php/IJECE/article/view/1524
