Abstract

The detection of electromechanical oscillations in power systems and the estimation of their frequency and damping parameters are based on a linear time-varying model. The parameters of the linear model are on-line adapted by means of Kalman filtering techniques to optimally approximate the measured signal representing the behavior of the power system based on a quadratic criterion. The estimated model parameters are then the basis for the calculation of parameters of the oscillations. Adaptive algorithms are based on a recursive calculation of the estimated parameter vector for each time-step based on the new value of the measured signal and the old values of the estimated parameters.
