FORCED OSCILLATION SOURCE LOCATION DETERMINATION BASED ON OSCILLATION MODE ANGLE ANALYSIS USING SYNCHROPHASOR DATA

A method includes performing by a processor: receiving a plurality of synchrophasor measurements of a power system signal associated with a time interval from a plurality of phasor measurement units (PMUs), respectively, each of the plurality of synchrophasor measurements including a phase angle, frequency value, and a timestamp associated with the synchrophasor measurement; determining, for each of the plurality of PMUs, a dominant mode frequency of a forced oscillation signal component of the power system signal based on the frequency value and the phase angle; determining, for each of the plurality of PMUs, a mode angle of the forced oscillation signal component at the dominant mode frequency; and determining a geographic forced oscillation source location for a source of the forced oscillation signal component based on the plurality of mode angles associated with each of the plurality of PMUs, respectively, and geographic locations of the plurality of PMUs.
