Various Integral Performance Criteria measures are taken as fitness function in PSO and are compared using overshoot, settling time and frequency and tie-line power deviation following a step load perturbation (SLP). The motivation for using different fitness technique in PSO is to show the behavior of the controller for a wide range of system parameters and load changes. Error based analysis with parametric uncertainties and load changes are tested on a two-area restructured power system. The results of the proposed PSO based controller show the better performance compared to the classical Ziegler-Nichols (Z-N) tuned PI and Fuzzy Rule based PI controller. %K Load Frequency Control %K Particle Swarm Optimization %K Bilateral Market %K Area Control Error %K Fuzzy Rule Based PI Controller %K Parametric Uncertainties %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=66822
