Conclusions and scope for future work

Abstract

We now summarize the work done in this monograph. We have presented two nonlinear control techniques for power system stabilization at an equilibrium using a CSC. Both the control laws were based on passivity ideas: one involves the notion of interconnection and damping assignment, the other is based on choosing target dynamics on a lower dimensional manifold. The synchronous generator was described using two well known nonlinear models—the second order swing equation and the third order flux-decay model. The actuator, that is the CSC, was modeled using an injection model and a first order model.
