Prony Analysis for Power System Transient Harmonics

Prony Analysis for Power System Transient Harmonics

Proliferation of nonlinear loads in power systems has increased harmonic pollution and deteriorated power quality. Not required to have prior knowledge of existing harmonics, Prony analysis detects frequencies, magnitudes, phases, and especially damping factors of exponential decaying or growing transient harmonics. In this paper, Prony analysis is implemented to supervise power system transien...

Power Grid Dynamics: Enhancing Power System Operation through Prony Analysis

Prony Analysis is a technique used to decompose a signal into a series consisting of weighted complex exponentials and promises to be an effi cient way of recognizing sensitive lines during faults in power systems such as the U.S. Power grid. Positive Sequence Load Flow (PSLF) was used to simulate the performance of a simple two-area-four-generator system and the reaction of the system during a...

Prony-RBFNN Approach for Tuning Power System Stabilizer

This paper presents a combined approach based on Prony analysis and radial basis function neural network for monitoring small signal stability and parameter tuning of power system stabilizer. Prony analysis method is used to estimate the modal components of low frequency oscillations associated with synchronous generators. In this method, the measured (simulated) time-domain signal is decompose...

Modern Methods for Power System Harmonics Estimation

Power System Transient Analysis Using Wavelet Transform

This paper presents time-frequency multiresolution wavelet analysis on power system transients. Since it is difficult to analyze transients on-site due to a vast amount of data recorded from a digital transient recorder, it is imperative to develop an intelligent recorder which has the ability to detect and classify different types of power system transients. In order to develop a good approach...
