Utilizing Distributed Power Flow Controller (DPFC) for power oscillation damping

This paper studies the capability of the DPFC to damp low frequency power oscillation. The POD controller parameters are calculated by using the residue method. It is shown that the DPFC has the capability of damping multiple frequency oscillations at the same time. Since the DPFC has three degrees of freedoms, the potential for POD is larger than for other devices, like SVC, TCSC, and SSSC.
