This paper presents a systematic approach for designing Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) based supplementary damping controllers for damping low frequency oscillations in a single-machine infinite-bus power system. Detailed investigations have been carried out considering the four alternatives UPFC based damping controller namely modulating index of series inverter (mB), modulating index of...

In this paper, a D-Q model of fuzzy based unified power flow controller (UPFC) has been proposed to control the active and reactive power flow through the transmission lines. Power loss reduction also intends with the proposed UPFC controller. The UPFC’s shunt and series controllers are developed based on D-Q fuzzy logic (FL) controller, which has been designed in PSCAD environment as an indepe...

This paper presents a method for designing of proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller based on unified power flow controller (UPFC) using chaotic harmony search algorithm (CHS) for damping of low frequency oscillations (LFO) in a power system. The main aim of this paper, optimization of selected gains with the time domainbased objective function which is solved by chaotic harmony sear...
