Power System Voltage Regulation via STATCOM Internal Nonlinear Control

Abstract

A new internal STATCOM control based on feedback linearization is proposed. The feedback linearization controller is developed without any simplifying assumptions to the STATCOM model. The proposed control is validated on the IEEE 118-bus system with full-order generator and network models as opposed to a small test system. Furthermore, the proposed control is benchmarked against published results. Lastly controllability issues associated with a singularity in the feedback linearization control (FBLC) coordinate transformation is identified, and a solution is provided to avoid instability.
