  If an interarea oscillatory mode has insufficient damping, generator
redispatch can be used to improve its damping. We explain and apply a new
analytic formula for the modal sensitivity to rank the best pairs of generators
to redispatch. The formula requires some dynamic power system data and we show
how to obtain that data from synchrophasor measurements. The application of the
formula to damp interarea modes is explained and illustrated with interarea
modes of the New England 10-machine power system.
