A new wide area damping controller design method considering signal transmission delay to damp interarea oscillations in power system

Wide area damping controller(WADC) is usually utilized to damp interarea low frequency oscillation in power system. However, conventional WADC design method neglects the influence of signal transmission delay and damping performance of WADC designed by the conventional method may deteriorate or even has no effect when signal transmission delay is beyond delay margin, an index that denotes delay endurance degree of power system. Therefore, a new design method for WADC under the condition of expected damping factor and required signal transmission delay is presented in this work. An improved delay margin with less conservatism is derived by adopting a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii function and more compact bounding technique on the derivative of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional. The improved delay margin, which constructs the correlation of damping factor and signal transmission delay, can be used to design WADC. WADC designed by the proposed method can ensure that power system satisfies expected damping factor when WADC input signal is delayed within delay margin. Satisfactory test results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Fault Detection Based on Hierarchical Cluster Analysis in Wide Area Backup Protection System

In wide area backup protection of electric power systems, the prerequisite of protection device's accurate, fast and reliable performance is its corresponding fault type and fault location can be discriminated quickly and defined exactly. In our study, global information will be introduced into the backup protection system. By analyzing and computing real-time PMU measurements, basing on cluster analysis theory, we are using mainly hierarchical cluster analysis to search after the statistical laws of electrical quantities' marked changes. Then we carry out fast and exact detection of fault components and fault sections, and finally accomplish fault isolation. The facts show that the fault detection of fault component (fault section) can be performed successfully by hierarchical cluster analysis and calculation. The results of hierarchical cluster analysis are accurate and reliable, and the dendrograms of hierarchical cluster analysis are in intuition.

Adaptive Data Transmission Method According to Wireless State in Long Range Wide Area Networks

The Internet of Things(IoT)has enabled various intelligent services,and IoT service range has been steadily extended through long range wide area communication technologies,which enable very long distance wireless data transmission.End-nodes are connected to a gateway with a single hop.They consume very low-power,using very low data rate to deliver data.Since long transmission time is consequently needed for each data packet transmission in long range wide area networks,data transmission should be efficiently performed.Therefore,this paper proposes a multicast uplink data transmission mechanism particularly for bad network conditions.Transmission delay will be increased if only retransmissions are used under bad network conditions.However,employing multicast techniques in bad network conditions can significantly increase packet delivery rate.Thus,retransmission can be reduced and hence transmission efficiency increased.Therefore,the proposed method adopts multicast uplink after network condition prediction.To predict network conditions,the proposed method uses a deep neural network algorithm.The proposed method performance was verified by comparison with uplink unicast transmission only,confirming significantly improved performance.

Advancement in Wide Area Monitoring Protection and Control Using PMU’s Model in MATLAB/SIMULINK

A big step forward to improve power system monitoring and performance, continued load growth without a corresponding increase in transmission resources has resulted in reduced operational margins for many power systems worldwide and has led to operation of power systems closer to their stability limits and to power exchange in new patterns. These issues, as well as the on-going worldwide trend towards deregulation of the entire industry on the one hand and the increased need for accurate and better network monitoring on the other hand, force power utilities exposed to this pressure to demand new solutions for wide area monitoring, protection and control. Wide-area monitoring, protection, and control require communicating the specific-node information to a remote station but all information should be time synchronized so that to neutralize the time difference between information. It gives a complete simultaneous snap shot of the power system. The conventional system is not able to satisfy the time-synchronized requirement of power system. Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) is enabler of time-synchronized measurement, it communicate the synchronized local information to remote station.

WAMS-based monitoring and control of Hopf bifurcations in multi-machine power systems

A method is proposed to monitor and control Hopf bifurcations in multi-machine power systems using the information from wide area measurement systems (WAMSs). The power method (PM) is adopted to compute the pair of conjugate eigenvalues with the algebraically largest real part and the corresponding eigenvectors of the Jacobian matrix of a power system. The distance between the current equilibrium point and the Hopf bifurcation set can be monitored dynamically by computing the pair of con- jugate eigenvalues. When the current equilibrium point is close to the Hopf bifurcation set, the approximate normal vector to the Hopf bifurcation set is computed and used as a direction to regulate control parameters to avoid a Hopf bifurcation in the power system described by differential algebraic equations (DAEs). The validity of the proposed method is demonstrated by regulating the reactive power loads in a 14-bus power system.

Evaluating the Effects of the Concentration of Large Scale Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Facilities Using Geographical Information System

In Japan, each municipality generally has its own municipal solid waste incineration facilities because of the principle of self-management in the respective territories. Typically, a small municipality often owns a small facility. However, a large facility which can run continuously at high temperature with stability would be preferable if the dioxin generation mechanism is to be considered. Accordingly, municipalities in contiguous areas should cooperate mutually by using a large facility. To evaluate the effect of the concentration of large facilities, the authors created a GIS （Geographic Information System） based database of combustible waste generation at town level in Shizuoka Prefecture. Focusing on large facilities in Shizuoka City and superannuated facilities in Shida area, the authors evaluated the effect of the concentration of large facilities in Shizuoka city on utilization rate of facilities, energy balance and CO2 emissions. Our results showed the amount of light oil consumption and CO2 emissions increased because the mileage distance of garbage collection trucks becomes longer. However, the utilization rates of facilities and the amount of energy recovery from waste are improved. From these standpoints, the authors conclude that the concentration of large facilities is better compared to a single municipality based facility.

Development and Application of On-line Wind Power Risk Assessment System

Because of the large-scale integration of wind power,the dynamic characteristics of power system have many uncertain effects.Based on deterministic analysis methods,traditional on-line security assessment system cannot quantitatively estimate the actual operating conditions of the power system for only considering the most serious and credible accidents.Therefore,the risk theory is introduced into an on-line security assessment system and then an on-line risk assessment system for wind power is designed and implemented by combining with the dynamic security assessment system.Based on multiple data integration,the wind power disturbance probability is available and the security assessment of the power grid can obtain security indices in different aspects.The operating risk index is an expectation of severity,computed by summing up all the products of the result probability and its severity.Analysis results are reported to the dispatchers in on-line environment,while the comprehensive weak links are automatically provided to the power dispatching center.The risk assessment system in operation can verify the reasonableness of the system.

Results show that extensive analysis of FACTs controller for improving stability of system.

Improving the performance of power system protection using wide area monitoring systems

Wide area monitoring(WAM) offers many opportunities to improve the performance of power system protection. This paper presents some of these opportunities and the motivation for their development. This methods include monitoring the suitability of relay characteristics,supervisory control of backup protection, more adaptive and intelligent system protection and the creation of novel system integrity protection scheme. The speed of response required for primary protection means that the role WAM in enhancing protection is limited to backup and system protection. The opportunities offered by WAM for enhancing protection are attractive because of the emerging challenges faced by the modern power system protection. The increasingly variable operating conditions of power systems are making it ever more difficult to select relay characteristics that will be a suitable compromise for all loading conditions and contingencies. The maloperation of relays has contributed to the inception and evolution of 70 % of blackouts,thus the supervision of the backup protection may prove a valuable tool for preventing or limiting the scale of blackouts. The increasing interconnection and complexity of modern power systems has made them more vulnerable to wide area disturbances and this has contributed to several recent blackouts. The proper management of these wide area disturbances is beyond the scope of most of the existing protection and new, adaptive system integrity protection schemes are needed to protect power system security.

Controlled islanding schemes for interconnected power systems based on coherent generator group identification and wide-area measurements

A reasonable islanding strategy of a power system is the final resort for preventing a cascading failure and/or a large-area blackout from occurrence. In recent years, the applications of wide area measurement systems(WAMS) in emergency control of power systems are increasing. Therefore, a new WAMS-based controlled islanding scheme for interconnected power systems is proposed. First, four similarity indexes associated with the trajectories of generators are defined, and the weights of these four indexes are determined by using the well-developed entropy theory. Then, a coherency identification algorithm based on hierarchical clustering is presented to determine the coherent groups of generators.Secondly, an optimization model for determining controlled islanding schemes based on the coherent groups of generators is developed to seek the optimal cutset. Finally, a 16-generator68-bus power system and a reduced WECC 29-unit 179-bus power system are employed to demonstrate the proposed WAMS-based controlled islanding schemes, and comparisons with existing slow coherency based controlled islanding strategies are also carried out.

A robust composite wide area control of a DFIG wind energy system for damping inter-area oscillations

This paper presents a novel composite wide area control of a DFIG wind energy system which combines the Robust Exact Differentiator(RED)and Discontinuous Integral(DI)control to damp out inter-area oscillations.RED generates the real-time differentiation of a relative speed signal in a noisy environment while DI control,an extension to a twisting algorithm and PID control,develops a continuous control signal and hence reduces chattering.The proposed control is robust to disturbances and can enhance the overall stability of the system.The proposed composite sliding mode control is evaluated using a modified benchmark two-area power system model with wind energy integration.Simulation results under various operating scenarios show the efficacy of the proposed approach.

A satellite clock error correction method in the wide area differential system

Based on the deep analysis of the wide area differential principle on the separation of satellite ephemeris errors and clock errors, the similarities and differences between the absolute separation of satellite ephemeris errors under time synchronization among the differential stations and relative separation of them under no time synchronization among them are analyzed. A one-station correction method of satellite clock errors including the 1st and the 2nd step correction is given under no time synchronization among these secondary stations, and the backward inference algorithm of the second correction of satellite clock errors is proposed. Through simulation analysis, satellite time service accuracy with code phase measurement can reach 5―7 ns, and that with carrier phase smoothing pseudo-range can reach 1―3 ns.
