A “globally” convergent controller for transient stability of multi-machine power systems using structure-preserving models

The approach adopted in this paper for the problem of transient stabilization of multimachine power systems sees the entire network as the (structure-preserving) interconnection of the network components, described by well known models. These structure-preserving models preserve the identity of the network components and allow for a more realistic treatment of the loads. Our main contribution is the explicit computation of a control law that, under a detectability assumption, ensures that all trajectories converge to the desired equilibrium point, provided that they start and remain in the region where the model makes physical sense.
