Supplementary frequency regulation in non-synchronous AC system connected via MTDC
Abstract In smart grid power system operation, frequency regulation is one of the most critical tasks towards power balance in the grid. This paper presents the schemes for improvement in operation of secondary loop of turbine-generator unit for frequency regulation in non-synchronous AC areas connected via multi-terminal direct current (MTDC) network. Two schemes have been discussed; (i) voltage droop based lead/lag compensator and (ii) DC power modulation at converter terminal depending upon frequency deviation from each AC area. In the first scheme, droop design based on lead/lag compensator using DC voltage deviation is introduced as supplementary signal at turbine-generator unit in eac…
Event signal characterization for disturbance interpretation in power grid
This paper presents the signal processing approach to detect and characterize the physical events that occur in power system using PMUs signals. A small window is applied so that the extracted spectral features belong to a stationary signal. This is based on applying empirical mode decomposition, followed by square root of spectral kurtosis (SRSK) for computation of statistical indices to indicate the event occurrence. Subsequently, features from these events are extracted using mel frequency cepstral coefficients on SRSK. © 2018 IEEE. Personal use of this material is permitted.
