Decentralized Model-Reference Adaptive Control Based Algorithm for Power Systems Inter-Area Oscillation Damping

Energies, 2022
Being the primary cause of inter-area oscillations and due to the fact that they limit the generation’s output, Low-Frequency Electromechanical Oscillations (LFEOs) represent a real threat to power system networks.

Power System Rotor Angle Stability Enhancement Using Lyapunov-Based Trajectory Tracking Controller and Model Reference Adaptive Control

Energies, 2022
It is vital that the synchronous generator rotor angle be kept stable to avoid disastrous consequences such as the loss of synchronism amongst generators within a power system network. Once it is unstable, the time that is taken to remedy this is advised
