Dynamic clustering-based model reduction scheme for damping control of large power systems using series compensators from wide area signals

Survey on Power System Stabilizers Control and their Prospective Applications for Power System Damping using Synchrophasor-Based Wide-Area Systems

Power system oscillation damping remains as one of the major concerns for secure and reliable operation of large power systems, and is of great current interest to both industry and academia. The principal reason for this is that the inception of poorly-damped low-frequency inter-area oscillations (LFIOs) when power systems are operating under stringent conditions may lead to systemwide breakup...

Design of Wide-area Damping Control Systems for Power System Low-frequency Inter-area Oscillations

Control Inversion: A Clustering-Based Method for Distributed Wide-Area Control of Power Systems

Wide-area control (WAC) has been shown to be an effective tool for damping low-frequency oscillations in power systems. In the current state of art, WAC is challenged by two main factors namely, scalability of design and complexity of implementation. In this paper we present a control design called control inversion that bypasses both of these challenges using the idea of clustering. The basic ...

Assessment of Residue Approach & Geometric approach to Select Wide-Area Signals for Power System Damping Control

In this paper, two different approaches are applied to the Kundur two-area four machines network in order to select the most effective signals to damped out the inter-area oscillations. The robustness analysis, simulations and different results show that in the case of wide-area signals selection, the geometric approach is more reliable and usefull the the residue approach.Also, the result conf...

Power Differential based Wide Area Protection

Current differential based wide area protection (WAP) has recently been proposed as a technique to increase the reliability of protection systems. It increases system stability and can prevent large contingencies such as cascading outages and blackouts. This paper describes how power differential protection (PDP) can be used within a WAP and shows that the algorithm operates correctly for a...
