Teager Energy Operator as a Metric to Evaluate Local Synchronization of Power System Devices

Abstract

This paper introduces a novel formulation to evaluate the local synchronization of power system devices, namely Synchronization Energy (SE). The formulation is derived based on the complex frequency concept and the Teager Energy Operator applied to the complex power. This formulation offers valuable insights into the relationship between complex frequency of voltage and current of the device and its stationary operating. Based on this relationship we derive the conditions for a novel definition of local synchronization of power system devices. Through various case studies, the paper demonstrates how SE can effectively assess local synchronization under diverse operating conditions.
