FORWARD AND BACKWARD EXTENDED PRONY (FBEP) METHOD WITH APPLICATIONS TO POWER SYSTEM SMALL-SIGNAL STABILITY

Abstract Details

2017, Doctor of Philosophy, Case Western Reserve University, EECS - System and Control Engineering.
We introduce the “Forward and Backward Extended Prony” (FBEP) method that identifies the parameters of complex exponential signals using a new strategy for finding true pole locations. The performance of the proposed method is investigated theoretically using statistical analysis and experimentally by simulation. Initial validation is accomplished using time series data without additive noise and with the help of singular value decomposition (SVD), the advantages of this method in accurately identifying both growing and decaying modes in moderate noise is then demonstrated by adding noise to the time series data with different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). The FBEP method is compared with the TLS-Prony method and the subspace-based methods by illustrating the Mean Squared Errors (MSEs) of the frequency and damping factor estimates given by each method with comparisons to the corresponding Cramer-Rao (CR) bounds. The computational time of FBEP and the subspace-based methods is compared. The performance of the FBEP method using the pseudoinverse and Total Least Squares (TLS) approaches below the threshold SNR is also studied. The FBEP method can be applied in cases where the poles of some modes are known a priori in complex exponential signals. The FBEP method is applied to power system small-signal stability analysis. Its effectiveness in identifying system eigenvalues from the output signal is validated by experiments on a test system model. Using a four-machine-two-area power system model the identification of the dominant modes contained in oscillatory signals given by the FBEP method is compared with that given by the SVD-TLS method, the Prony-SR method and Trudnowski’s algorithm at different SNR levels. The computational cost of the FBEP method, the Prony-SR method, and Trudnowski’s algorithm is evaluated. The results from multi-signal analysis and sliding window analysis using the FBEP method are also presented.
