Abstract
- The paper deals with a novel method for the analysis of low-frequency inter-area oscillations, a harmful phenomenon that can be more and more frequent in electrical power systems due to the expansion of interconnected power grid. In particular, inter-area oscillations are electromechanical oscillations involving groups of generators geographically far from each other; correctly and timely estimating their parameters is a fundamental task to preserve the stability of the electrical power system. Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) technology has become the key element in Monitoring and Control systems of Transmission System Operators offering new opportunities for improving their situational awareness. Proposed method processes measures provided by the PMUs to extract the oscillating components and, for each of them, estimates characteristic parameters such as frequency and damping. To this aim, the method exploits a combination of the Hilbert Transform and some optimization algorithms, thus gaining the following improvements: (a) enhanced capability of separating oscillatory components, thanks to a new strategy for the choice of bisecting frequency, (b) possibility of separating components characterized by frequency difference lower than the spectral resolution, (c) remarkable accuracy associated with the damping estimates of each oscillation and (d) robustness to the noise affecting the input signal. Results obtained in tests involving either synthesized signals or simulated electrical systems finally assessed the promising performance of the proposed method.
