Small signal oscillatory instability control of power system using posicast controller and evolutionary programming

Oscillatory stability is a subcategory of Small Signal Stability (SSS) which is defined as the ability of power system to maintain synchronous operation under small disturbances. The oscillations usually are concerned with frequencies between 0.2 to 3 hertz. Modal analysis is being used for analysis...
