Description
Abstract:This thesis will investigate the impact of the use of the Phasor Measurement Units(PMU) on the state estimation problem. First, incorporation of the PMU measurements in aconventional state estimation program will be discussed. Then, the effect of adding PMUmeasurements on the state estimation solution accuracy will be studied. Bad data processing in the presence of PMU measurements will also be presented. Finally, a multiareastate estimation method will be developed. This method involves a two level estimation scheme, where the first level estimation is carried out by each area independently. The second level estimation is required in order to coordinate the solutions obtained by each area and also to detect and identify errors in the boundary measurements.The first objective of this thesis is to formulate the full weighted least square state estimation method using PMUs. The second objective is to derive the linear formulation of the state estimation problem when using only PMUs. The final objective is to formulate atwo level multi-area state estimation scheme and illlustrate its performance via simulationexamples.
