This paper proposes an adaptive control design framework for damping inter-area oscillations in power systems. The design is entirely based on ambient synchrophasor measurements. The proposed framework consists of three components, namely, input-output transfer function estimation, channel selection, and feedback control implementation. For the first part, we propose a simple yet effective novel estimation algorithm in the frequency domain to identify low-order transfer functions in pre-specified frequency ranges between the measured input and output data using ambient synchrophasor measurements. In the second part, based on the identified transfer functions, the joint controllability-observability (JCO) of all identified channels is estimated and most suitable control candidates for damping the target inter-area mode are selected. Finally, an appropriate lead-lag controller is designed using a classical frequency-domain method to improve the damping of a dominant oscillatory inter-area mode. Since ambient data is used in the analysis, the selected channel as well as the designed controller parameters can be updated online whenever the system operating point changes resulting in an efficient adaptive controller. The effectiveness of the proposed framework is illustrated by implementing it on the two-area Kundur test system and the IEEE 39-bus test system.
