Power Sentinel

Power system oscillations can trigger blackouts and result in billions of dollars in economic losses. With the advent of Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs), it is now possible to capture high-resolution, real-time dynamics of the grid.

Power Sentinel — MatAstra’s clean yet powerful solution for multi-channel PMU signal analysis, delivers unsupervised, real-time insights into mode shape behavior — enabling operators to detect and mitigate oscillations before they escalate.

Mode-Shape Extraction

• 35-channel real-world PMU data

• Mode shape extraction in fractions of a second

• Scalable to hundreds of channels with same low-latency performance

• Track amplitude and damping at each mode for every single channel

• Identify prone-to-oscillation channels

• Allow proactive intervention to prevent system-wide oscillations

• Avoid potential blackouts and significant operational losses
