A new technique is developed using particle swarm optimization (PSO) combined with linear matrix inequality (LMI). The main feature of PSO, not stick- ing into a local minimum, is used to eliminate the conservativeness of designing a static output feedback (SOF) stabi- lizer within an iterative solution of LMIs. The technique is further extended to guarantee robustness against uncertain- ties wherein power systems operation is changing continuously due to load changes. Numerical simulation ahs illus- trated the utility of the developed technique.
