Abstract :
A theoretical basis and signal-processing approach for estimating a power system´s electromechanical mode-shape properties using time-synchronized phasor measurements are presented. The relationship between modal eigenvectors and measurable power system quantities are derived. Spectral correlation analysis is used to implement the approach with demonstrative examples. This includes simulation examples as well as measured data from the western North American power system.
