Over the past years many kind of control techniques are proposed for induction motor drives. Among them DTC has gained more importance due to fast dynamic response and simple control structures. However it has disadvantage of high ripples in torque and slow response because of hysteresis controllers in torque and flux loop at low speed. To improve the performance of DTC (Direct Torque Control) and...Show More
Power oscillations occur in a transmission line due to various transients affect distance relay characteristics and may result in relay mal-operation. This paper presents new approach to damp out the power oscillation as early as possible by using power system stabilizer. Due to early damp out oscillations, no much variation is seen in the measured apparent impedance at relay location and it could...Show More
