PMU deployment in power system oscillation monitoring

Abstract

Oscillatory events at low frequencies are commonly witnessed in interconnected power systems. Phasor Measurement Units (PMU) can provide time-synchronized measurements; it can communicate the synchronized local and inter-area information to remote station. In this paper, we have modeled a PMU, and we have tested it in the 14-bus power system. It proposes a real-time monitoring tool that exploits synchronized phasor measurements from PMUs, which allow real-time analysis of higher-frequency events, filling the lack of such monitoring application in the power systems area.
