A Robust Direct Parameter Identification of Exponentially Damped Low-Frequency Oscillation in Power Systems

Abstract EN

Low-frequency oscillations in power systems can be modeled as an exponentially damped sinusoid (EDS) signal.

Its frequency, damping factor, and amplitude are identified by the robust algorithm proposed in this paper.

Under the condition of no noise, the exponentially convergent property of the proposed identification is proved by the use of time scale change, variable transformation, slow integral manifold, averaging method, and Lyapunov stability theorem in sequence.

Under the condition of bounded additive noise, the antinoise performance of the identification of each parameter is investigated by the perturbed system theorem and error synthesis principle.

The robustness of the proposed method is embodied in the following aspects: the exponential convergence for EDS signal with a wide range of frequency, especially with a rather low frequency; the boundary values of identification errors resulting from high-frequency sinusoidal noise of both frequency and damping factor can be adjusted by tuning the design parameters; and the different effects of the four design parameters on tracking performance and antinoise performance of each parameter identification.

Simulation results demonstrate the performance of the algorithm and validate the conclusions.
