The invention relates to the technical field of oscillation suppression, in particular to a control method and device for a subsynchronous oscillation suppression device, and the method comprises the following steps: collecting the frequency of a
power grid, load fluctuation, the rotating speed of a generator and the excitation state of the generator, and recognizing subsynchronous oscillation frequency signals in a power
system based on real-time operation state data; the subsynchronous oscillation frequency
signal comprises oscillation frequency,
oscillation amplitude and oscillation phase; analyzing the time-varying characteristics of the subsynchronous oscillation frequency
signal through a time-varying analysis
algorithm, wherein the time-varying characteristics comprise the time-varying characteristics of the oscillation frequency, the time-varying characteristics of the
oscillation amplitude and the time-varying characteristics of the oscillation phase; the frequency suppression parameters are corrected according to the time-varying characteristics, and through an adaptive controller in the subsynchronous oscillation suppression device, based on the corrected frequency suppression parameters, real-time adjustment is carried out, a
control effect is applied in real time, and subsynchronous oscillation is suppressed. According to the invention, the limitation of the traditional
fixed frequency hypothesis is avoided, and the risk of misjudgment and insufficient suppression is greatly reduced.
