Abstract
A wide area damping controller (WADC) is designed in this paper to mitigate the frequency deviation of interconnected power system. The effect of time delay during wide area measurement system (WAMS) and saturation of the actuator is also considered in this work while designing the WADC. The effect of communication delay along with the saturation of a actuator can make the interconnected power system unstable. This paper focuses on finding a stabilization criterion of the power system connected with a WADC. The WADC is designed taking the effect of time-varying delay in the WAMS and saturation of the actuator into consideration. The saturation of the actuator is modelled with the help of dead zone type non-linearity. In this paper, a Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional is used to design a state feedback control law based on linear matrix inequality (LMI) taking time-varying delay and the actuator saturation into consideration. A thyristor controlled series capacitor (TCSC) is used as an actuator. A supplementary damping controller (SDC) is used as the WADC in this paper to provide sufficient damping. Simulation study on four machine 11 bus power system and New England 39 bus power system is performed to understand the performance of the designed controller. The results are also verified in real-time using OPAL-RT.
