Abstract

Damping of low-frequency inter-area oscillations in a power system has been the main concern for ascertaining the small-signal stability. Much of these efforts had been paid on designing damping controller with controller parameters obtained by offline analysis using a linearized model of the power system around a most probable operating point. A modern power system is however subjected to frequent changes in operating points due to load, renewable penetration and topology variations. An adaptive controller has the advantage of flexibility in getting the controller parameters auto-tunned online thus can be used for different operating conditions. This paper presents a WADC controller using a self tunning control (STC) strategy. The evaluation of the designed controller under various conditions has been carried out with renewable integrated IEEE 11 bus and IEEE 39 bus test systems. From the results, it is found that the proposed WADC can provide improved damping on inter-area oscillations under variable operating conditions.
