Power system stabilizer and method

摘要

A power system (10) stabilizer (12) includes: a sensor (14) configured for sensing a signal representative of electro-mechanical oscillations of the power system; a controller (16) configured for using the sensed signal for generating control signals for damping the electro-mechanical oscillations; and a damper (18) including a damping converter (20) and a resistor (22) coupled to the damping converter, the damping converter being coupled to the power system through a power bus (24), the damping converter configured for using the control signals for damping the electro-mechanical oscillations.
