Abstract
A robust coordination approach for the controller design of multiple high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) and flexible ac transmission systems (FACTS) wide-area controls (WACs) is presented in this paper and has the aim of stabilizing multiple interarea oscillation modes in large-scale power systems. The suitable wide-area control signals, which are given to HVDC and FACTS wide-area controllers, respectively, are chosen from a large number of candidate items. Then, a sequential robust design approach is planned for the wide-area controller coordination of HVDC and FACTS devices. This approach is based on the robust control theory and is formulated as a standard problem of multiobjective mixed H2/H∞ output-feedback control with regional pole placement constraints. The linear matrix inequality (LMI) theory is applied to solve such a robust control problem. A case study on the 16-machine 5-area system, which is modified with one HVDC interconnected transmission, one shunt-FACTS device (SVC), and one series-FACTS device (TCSC), is performed to validate the robust performance in terms of multiple oscillations damping under various operating conditions.
