A Time–Frequency Fusion GAN-Based Method for Power System Oscillation Risk Scenario Generation

With the large-scale integration of renewable energy and the increasing use of power electronics, the issue of wide-band oscillations in power grids has become increasingly prominent. The scarcity and uneven distribution of oscillation samples pose significant challenges for training data-driven models, and traditional generative models struggle to ensure fidelity in both time and frequency domains. To address this, this paper proposes a Time–Frequency Fusion Generative Adversarial Network (TFF-GAN) for generating power grid oscillation risk scenarios. The method constructs a dual-path generation and discrimination framework, where the generator decomposes the signal using Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT), with time-domain features extracted by a convolutional neural network (CNN) and frequency-domain features extracted from the STFT representation by a dedicated spectral network. These features are then fused using a U-Net structure. The discriminator simultaneously evaluates the authenticity of both the time-domain waveform and the frequency-domain spectrum. A composite loss function, incorporating time-domain loss, frequency-domain loss, and adversarial loss, is used for joint optimization. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method generates oscillation scenarios with high fidelity in both time-domain waveforms and frequency-domain spectra, effectively supporting power grid oscillation risk assessment and control strategy validation.

Abstract

With the large-scale integration of renewable energy and the increasing use of power electronics, the issue of wide-band oscillations in power grids has become increasingly prominent. The scarcity and uneven distribution of oscillation samples pose significant challenges for training data-driven models, and traditional generative models struggle to ensure fidelity in both time and frequency domains. To address this, this paper proposes a Time–Frequency Fusion Generative Adversarial Network (TFF-GAN) for generating power grid oscillation risk scenarios. The method constructs a dual-path generation and discrimination framework, where the generator decomposes the signal using Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT), with time-domain features extracted by a convolutional neural network (CNN) and frequency-domain features extracted from the STFT representation by a dedicated spectral network. These features are then fused using a U-Net structure. The discriminator simultaneously evaluates the authenticity of both the time-domain waveform and the frequency-domain spectrum. A composite loss function, incorporating time-domain loss, frequency-domain loss, and adversarial loss, is used for joint optimization. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method generates oscillation scenarios with high fidelity in both time-domain waveforms and frequency-domain spectra, effectively supporting power grid oscillation risk assessment and control strategy validation.
