Design and development of dsp based facts controllers

Abstract

The Flexible AC Transmission System FACTS technology is used newlinebecause of easy power flow control and also it increases maximum power newlinetransfer capability FACTS controllers are also used to control the interrelated newlineparameters such as series impedance shunt impedance current voltage newlinephase angle and oscillations Recent advances in the power electronic newlinestatic switches have made the use of the Voltage Source Converter newlineVSC feasible at both the transmission and distribution levels As a result newlineStatic Compensator STATCOM Static Synchronous Series Compensator newlineSSSC and Unified Power Flow Controller UPFC have been developed newlineThere is a lack of clear comparison of performance of different newlinecontrollers for STATCOM in dSPACE environment which is a real time newlinesimulation software and has lot of advantages over other simulation software newline newline
