Abstract
This paper proposes approaches to estimate the dominant swing mode sensitivity by utilizing Wide Area Measurements. The proposed methods are suitable to situations where availability of information of system model and operating condition is limited to a subsystem in which the control action resides. Modal frequency and mode shape of the dominant swing mode are estimated from a Wide Area Measurement System (WAMS) based mode identification technique. This information is used along with the subsystem model for estimation of eigenvalue sensitivity. Such a scenario is indeed faced in large interconnected power systems, where effect of a control action in the subsystem on a dominant inter-area mode needs to be estimated before actual implementation. Analytical formulations of sensitivity are derived using special modal characteristics (identified based on simplified system models) and a hybrid representation of the system, in which the subsystem is treated as a controller in a feedback loop to the rest of the system. Case studies with detailed models of two area four machine and IEEE 16 machine 68 bus system validate these formulations.
