Dynamic output compensation between selected channels in power systems. Part 2. Applications

This paper presents a novel application of multivariable control theory to the design of Multiple Multi-Input Single-Output MMISO damping controllers for electric power systems. The damping controllers are sequentially design ed to optimize performance indexes that may be local or global. The design can be carried out to favor non-interaction among controllers, or to favor sharing responsibility in achieving a common objective. The modeling and design approach described in Part 1 is used in the WSCC 3- areas test system and on the NPCC 16-machines system. Measurements selectio n, agent model building, and application of robust control, of projective c ontrol and dynamic compensation in the design framework presented in Part 1 are illustrated.
