stability performance with ESD installed in Bus 5 and 7 is better
than that without ESD as demonstrated in Table I. This fact
substantiates the excellence and effectiveness of the proposed
method in improving the AC interconnected power system dy-

The performance of segmenting the fictitious study-case

locations are allocated at Bus 5 and 7 in the fictitious study-case
system.
The values of with ESD installed in different loca-
tions all are bigger than the values of without ESD
shown in Table I(c). The power swings on the tie line with ESD
installed in different locations all are larger than that without
ESD as well. The conclusion from the simulation results and
theoretical analysis are the same. The dynamic stability perfor-
mance with ESD installed in both in Bus 6 is even worse than
that without ESD. This fact indicates that the ESD locations are
