Adaptive speed identification for vector control of induction motors without rotational transducers
Colin D. Schauder
- 01 Oct 1989
TL;DR: A model-reference adaptive system (MRAS) for the estimation of induction motor speed from measured terminal voltages and currents is described, achieving moderate bandwidth speed control without the use of shaft-mounted transducers.

The unified power flow controller: a new approach to power transmission control
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a unified power flow controller (UPFC) that is able to control both the transmitted real power and, independently, the reactive power flows at the sending-and the receiving-end of the transmission line.

Static Synchronous Series Compensator: A Solid-State Approach to the Series Compensation of Transmission Lines
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe an active approach to series line compensation, in which a synchronous voltage source implemented by a gate turn-off thyristor (GTO) based voltage-sourced inverter is used to provide controllable series compensation.

The interline power flow controller concept: a new approach to power flow management in transmission systems
TL;DR: The interline power flow controller (IPFC) as mentioned in this paper employs a number of inverters with a common DC link, each to provide series compensation for a selected line of the transmission system.

Operation of the unified power flow controller (UPFC) under practical constraints
TL;DR: In this paper, the basic control, sequencing and protection philosophies that govern the operation of the UPFC, subject to the practical constraints encountered in an actual high power installation, are described. And the results from a TNA study, undertaken jointly by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) and Westinghouse Science and Technology Center (STC), are illustrated with representative results.
