The use of the supplementary controllers of a unified power flow controller (UPFC) to damp low frequency oscillations in a weakly connected system is investigated. The potential of the UPFC supplementary controllers to enhance the dynamic stability is evaluated by measuring the electromechanical controllability through singular value decomposition (SVD) analysis. Individual designs of the UPFC ...

This article presents a novel configuration for unified power flow controller (UPFC) comprising modular multilevel cascaded converter (MMCC) with full-bridge inverter.
