Abstract:The paper presents analysis of optimisation results of power system stabilizer (PSS) parameters when taking into account the uncertainty of mathematical model parameters of the power system (PS) elements. The Pareto optimisation was used for optimisation of the system stabilizer parameters. Parameters of five stabilizers of PSS3B type were determined in optimisation process with use of a genetic algorithm with tournament selection. The results obtained were assessed from the point of view of selecting the criterion function. The analysis of influence of the parameter uncertainty on the quality of the results obtained was performed.

Abstract. The paper presents a method for determining sets of Pareto optimal solutions (compromise sets) -parameter values of PSS3B system stabilizers working in a multi-machine power system -when optimising different multidimensional criteria. These criteria are determined for concrete disturbances when taking into account transient waveforms of the instantaneous power, angular speed and terminal voltage of generators in one, chosen generating unit or in all units of the system analysed. The application of multi-criteria methods allows taking into account the optimisation process of power system stabilizer (PSS) parameters, many sometimes contradictory requirements (criteria) without losing ability to reach the optimal solution. A choice of the compromise solution can be made by assuming the values of the weighting coefficients associated with particular components of the vector criterion and determining the equivalent, global criterion. A change of the values of those weighting coefficients in the equivalent criterion does not require, in the case of the Pareto optimization, carrying out repeated calculations.

This paper presents a current literature review (from the years 2017–2022) on issues related to the application of power system stabilizers (PSSs) for damping electromechanical swings in power systems (PSs). After the initial selection of papers found in the databases used, over 600 publications were qualified for this review, of which 216 were subjected to detailed analysis. In the review, issues related to the following problems are described: applications of classic PSSs, applications of new stabilizer structures based on new algorithms (including artificial intelligence), development of new methods for tuning PSSs, and operation of PSSs in PSs with high power generation by renewable sources. Describing individual papers, the research methods used by the authors (simulations, measurement methods, and a combination of both) are specified, attention is paid to the waveforms presented in the papers, and reference is made to the types of PSs in which PSSs (large multimachine, reflecting real systems, smaller standard multimachine New-England type, and simplest single-machine) operate. The tables contain detailed comments on the selected papers. The final part of the review presents general comments on the analyzed papers and guidelines for future PS stability studies.
