Oscillation Modal Analysis From Ambient Synchrophasor Data Using Distributed Frequency Domain Optimization

摘要

This paper provides a distributed frequency domain algorithm for real-time modal estimation of large power systems using ambient synchrophasor data. By dividing the computation between a supervisory central computer and local optimizations at the substation level, the algorithm efficiently estimates multiple dominant mode frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes from wide-area power system measurements. The algorithm, called distributed frequency domain optimization, is tested on known test systems and archived real power system data from eastern and western power systems.
