Develop parameter (H) estimation method for real coherent areas based on the real system of the RTDMS: (a) Estimate the system model uncertainties: although coherent group of machines are modeled as single classical machine, yet this modeling is not prefect in real systems and the researcher will introduce process noise to encounter for such system modeling uncertainties. (b) Develop any necessary method to complement the method described in item 2 contaminated by the process noise of item 3a f 3 (c) Verify results with inter-area oscillation frequency. 4.
