Abstract

The paper proposes a WADC approach using CART technique to dampen inter-area oscillations (IAOs) in bulk power systems. In this case, PMU data are filtered to estimate inter-area dynamics in which using pade approximation, a pole-zero IAO compensation block is designed. An online random decrement technique is also developed to identify the coherent groups and damping ratios to activate the WADC for oscillation damping. An offline process is provided to identify 200 critical IAO contingencies and tunes WADC gains using PSO for training CARTs via a set of 200 input inter-area signals and assigning output controlling gains pre-trained data and evaluating the CART estimations through online operation. The WADC approach is validated for oscillation damping on a 39-bus system and a realistic 561-generator Iranian grid. Simulations show 98 % accuracy in achieving sufficient damping ratios (>0.6) across various operating conditions.
