Abstract

The excitation control of synchronous generator in a single machine to an infinite bus (SMIB) power system is very important to improve the stability modes of power system. In addition to the usual or conventional excitation control techniques and speed governors, other devices proved its effectiveness to enhance better system stability like power system stabilizers (PSS) and static VAR compensators (SVC). In this paper, the PSS is used as an additional device to improve the SMIB power system stability. Two out of different control strategies were used; a conventional control technique (PI controller) and a linear optimal controller (LOC). A comparison between both types of PSSs was stated. The contribution of this paper is the design and application of an optimal-PSS and a PI-PSS to a synchronous generator connected to an infinite bus power system. KeywordsSingle machine to an infinite bus, power system stabilizer, excitation control, PI controller, linear optimal controller.
