In some decades, the demand for electrical power has increased but the generation and transmission remained limited due to limited resources and environmental restrictions. The increased demand for electrical power has also increased the complexity in the transmission system. It resulted in the form of the question of stability of power system. Here the stability of power system with possible m...

This paper concerns the optimization and coordination of the conventional FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems) damping controllers in multimachine power system. Firstly, the parameters of FACTS controller are optimized. Then, a hybrid fuzzy logic controller for the coordination of FACTS controllers is presented. This coordination method is well suitable to series connected FACTS devices lik...

Satisfactory damping of power oscillations is an important issue to be addressed when dealing with the angle stability of power systems. This phenomenon is well-known and observable especially when a fault occurs. To improve the damping of oscillations in power systems, supplementary control laws can be applied to existing devices. These supplementary actions are referred to as power oscillatio...

In modern days power system are becoming highly unpredictable, so low voltages and blackout are becoming common scenario. The voltage limits are affected because the system is operated close to its stability limits. To improve the voltage profile new generating plants have to be developed, which are restricted due to economic an environmental limitations. To overcome these limitations and use t...
