Abstract

This paper presents a novel approach to analyse stability robustness of controls in power systems over a range of operating conditions. The controls considered include exciters, power system stabilizers, and governors. The analytical basis for the approach is presented. The robustness framework for power systems is formulated. Numerical results for a sample test system are obtained and compared with those obtained by conventional techniques.
