Control of Power System Oscillations
Control of Power System Oscillations
Abstract - This paper presents aspects of control of power system oscillations. The
focus of the paper is on electromechanical oscillations. which typically occur in the
frequency range of 0.1 to 2 Hz. This paper is based on the recently completed 200-page
