A generalized simplified model for describing the dynamic behavior of distributed parameter systems is proposed. The various specific characteristics of gain and phase angle of distributed parameter systems are investigated from frequency response formulation and complex plane representation of the proposed simplified model. The complex plane investigation renders some important inequality cons...

A robust damping control design methodology for a thyristor controlled phase angle regulator using global signals is proposed based on the simultaneous stabilisation approach. The numerical design algorithm determines the controller parameters in order to guarantee closed-loop poles in the left half plane with preferential treatment to those corresponding to the inter-area modes. Plant models u...

Software-defined networking was recently introduced and proposed to separate the control from data plane. This architecture introduces new challenges, particularly with regard security safety. To address safety it is necessary set up a multi controller provide redundancy. In addition, second can have benefit because be used validate decisions taken by first controller. However, communication be...
