Optimization of power system stabilizers using participation factor and genetic algorithm

This paper describes a method to determine the optimal location and the number of multi-machine power system stabilizers (PSSs) using participation factor (PF) and genetic algorithm (GA). The PF method is primarily used for number estimation and to identify the location of the PSSs, while the GA is...
