Abstract: This paper shows a simple approach to obtain an operating point sufficiently small signal stable. In the
case of a stable operating point with a poorly damped oscillatory mode, the objective is to increase the damping
of that mode. That is, the power system linearization at the operating point is modified. Operator actions such as
redispatch, varying load, varying reactive power (voltage) often modify the operating point to do this; the effect
of this is that transients near enough to the operating point will decay more quickly. However, the analysis does
not attempt the more difficult study of large signal transients. The existence of a stable operating point is of
course necessary for system security, but there is no guarantee that large signal transients will result in operation
at that operating point.
