Identifying sources of subsynchronous resonance (SSR) is crucial for understanding and mitigating incidents. Recent studies have shown that SSR impedance and power are effective indicators that can identify an SSR source. However, the calculation of two indexes requires SSR voltage and current phasors as the inputs, which are not directly available from existing online monitoring systems. To address this issue, this paper presents a novel method to calculate SSR impedance/power based on synchrophasors provided by a wide-area monitoring system. As a result, the online detection of SSR sources is enabled. Through mathematical derivation, it is revealed that a synchrophasor under SSR is dominated by four modes: two from the fundamental frequency and two from the SSR frequency. The problem thus can be transformed to a modal parameter extraction (MPE). Two classic MPE algorithms, Prony analysis and the matrix pencil method, are employed in this paper to extract the SSR parameters and calculate the SSR impedance/power. Their performances are verified using synthetic signals and electromagnetic transient simulations. Furthermore, the method is applied to an actual SSR incident involving 23 wind farms. The findings suggest that 17 of 23 wind farms did not contribute negative damping to the oscillation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
