Abstract
Ensuring the transient stability of the power system networks is one of the prime challenges in the highly interconnected power systems. Though the low-frequency oscillations are not very harmful initially, failure to damping out may lead the system to go out of synchronism. The employment of flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices may suppress these oscillations effectively in addition to the enhancement of power transfer capability. Among many FACTS devices, unified power flow controller (UPFC) is one of the most sophisticated ones. Tuning the parameters of power system stabilizer (PSS) coordinated with UPFC for a stable system is a multi-objective optimization problem. This paper aims to optimize the parameters of power system stabilizer (PSS) of power network incorporating UPFC using support vector regression (SVR) in real time to damp out the small signal oscillations hence to enhance the transient stability. System eigenvalues obtained from SVR tuned UPFC coordinated PSS and the fixed gain conventional PSS are compared to investigate the efficacy of the proposed technique for different loading conditions. Besides, time domain simulation comparison proves the superiority of the proposed technique over the conventional one. Furthermore, the statistical performance measures for training and testing datasets provide confidence on the developed SVR model.
