Application of small-signal stability tools and techniques to a large power system

This paper presents the results of a small-signal stability study conducted on a large power system. The tools and techniques applied have been reported in previous work. The novelty of this paper and study is that these tools and techniques are being applied here to a system that is at least an order of magnitude larger than the systems previously studied. As a result this study presents an interesting learning opportunity.
