Abstract
This paper introduces a method for fault-masking and system reconfiguration in
power transmission systems. The paper demonstrates how faults are handled by
reconfiguring remaining controls through utilisation of wide-area measurement
in real time. It is shown how reconfiguration can be obtained using a virtual
actuator concept, which covers Lure-type systems. The paper shows the steps
needed to calculate a virtual actuator, which relies on the solution of a linear
matrix inequality. The solution is shown to work with existing controls by
adding a compensation signal. Simulation results of a benchmark system show
ability of the reconfiguration to maintain stability
