Introduction
The unified power flow controller (UPFC) was proposed [l] to achieve the flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS). It is a multiple-functional FACTS
controller with primary duty to be power flow control
[2]. The secondary functions of the UPFC can be voltage control, transient stability improvement, oscillation
damping etc. Recently, there has been a growing interest in studying the UPFC, its modelling [3, 41, its basic
function to control the power flow [5] and its capability
to increase system transient stability [6]. In [2] and [3],
the damping function of the UPFC is demonstrated by
examples. However, so far there has been no research
reported which devotes itself to investigation into the
basic issues on the damping function of the UPFC.
Therefore, in this paper, the linearised Phillips-Heffron model of a power system installed with an UPFC
is first established, which is of the same configuration
as that of the unified model for static var compensator
(SVC), thyristor-controlled series compensator (TCSC)
and thyristor-controlled phase shifter (TCPS) presented
in [7]. On the basis of the linearised model established,
the phase compensation method [8] is applied for the
design of the UPFC damping controller:
(i) to select the operating condition of the power system where an effective and robust UPFC damping controller can be designed;
(ii) to choose the most effective and robust input control signal of the UPFC on which the damping function of the UPFC is superimposed;
(iii) to set the parameters of the UPFC damping controller.

where AmE, AmB, AdE, ASB are the linearisation of the
input control signals of the UPFC. The linearised
dynamic model of eqn. 13 can be shown by Fig. 2,
where only one input control signal is demonstrated,
with U being e (Au = Am,), b (Au = AmB),Se (Au = AS,)
or Sh (Au = ASB). It can be seen that the configuration
of the Phillips-Heffron model is exactly the same as
that installed with SVC, TCSC and TCPS presented in
VI.

F(&), which is named as the forward path of the
UPFC damping controller, has a decisive influence on
the effectiveness of the UPFC damping controller.
Since F(&) varies with power system operating conditions and choices of input control signals of the UPFC,
it can be used for the selection of power system operating condition at which the UPFC damping controller is
designed, and of the input control signal of the UPFC
to be superimposed by the UPFC damping function. If
we assume the set of the operating conditions of the
power system is Q(p), F(&) can be denoted as the function of system operating condition p and input control
signal of the UPFC uk, F(&, p, uk). The criterion of the
selection can be:
h s e l e c t e d = min F(Xo,h, U k ) , h E R ( h )

(i) Eqn. 17 requires that the operating condition, where
the UPFC damping control is least effective, is selected
for the design of the controller, since once the UPFC
damping controller is designed at the least effective
operating condition, its effectiveness at other operating
conditions is guaranteed. Thus the robustness of the
damping controller is achieved.
(ii) For the efficient operation of the UPFC damping
function. the required damping should be provided at
minimum control cost. This can be achieved by applying the criterion of eqn. 18a so that the most effective
input co:itrol signal is selected.
(iii) A good design of damping controller requires that
it provides a steady damping over all the range of
power system operating conditions. If the damping
contribution from the controller increases greatly, on
the one hand, with the variations of power system
operatin,$ conditions, the damping function could be
over-strong at some operating conditions, which would
pose much unwanted influence on other modes in the
power system. On the other hand, a sharp drop in the
damping contribution from the controller with the
changes of power system operating conditions results in
poor robustness. Therefore, the criterion of eqn. 186
requires that, when the input control signal of the
UPFC is selected, the damping contribution by the
UPFC damping controller changes as little as possible
with the variations of power system operating conditions so that a smooth damping function of the UPFC
over Q(j.1) is obtained. However, this criterion should
be applied jointly with that of eqn. 18a, since failing to
meet the requirement of the effectiveness is not a
proper sclection.
A set of similar criteria to eqns. 17 and 18 to select
the effective and robust installing locations and feedback signals of FACTS-based stabilisers are proposed
for a multimachine power system [lo]. The author is
working to generalise eqns. 17 and 18 for the study of
damping function of UPFC installed in multimachine
power systems, where an effectiveness function will be
proposetl to replace F(&, p, uk) in eqns. 17 and 18.
Furthermore, from eqn. 16 we can see that the phase
compensation method can be used to set the parameters of the UPFC damping controller. Without loss of
generalily, we can assume:
H ( s )=
~~
ST,
K u (1+ sTz)(1+ ST^)
+ ST, 1+ STU(1+ ~ T 1 ) (+1 ST^)
H ( X 0 ) = HLO,
F(X0) =

By setting:
Example
single or two transmission lines connecting the generator and the infinite-bus bar with the load condition to
be Pe0 = 0.1 - 1.2pu, V,, = l.Opu, Vho= 1.Opu. So, the
set of system operating conditions is:
n(P) = { b :vtO = 1.0 pu, VbO = 1.0 pu,
PO
, = 0.1 pu - 1.2 pu,

The UPFC is installed for the purpose of multiple control functions, one of which will be the suppression of a
low-frequency oscillation occurring in the system, since
it is found that the damping of the responsible electromechanical oscillation mode is negative or very poor
over Q ( p ) , as shown in Fig. 5. From Fig. 5 it can be
seen that, at the operating condition,
