Distributed sensor networks often include a multitude of sensors, each measuring parts of a process state space or observing the operations of a system. Communication of measurements between the sensor nodes and estimator(s) cannot…
A tri-objective optimal Micro Phasor Measurement Units ({\mu}-PMUs) Placement method is presented, with a focus on minimizing the following three parameters: i) the total number of {\mu}-PMU channels, (ii) the maximum state estimation…
State estimation is routinely being performed in high-voltage power transmission grids in order to assist in operation and to detect faulty equipment. In low- and medium-voltage power distribution grids, on the other hand, few real-time…
The lack of measurements in distribution grids poses a severe challenge for their monitoring: since there may not be enough sensors to achieve numerical observability, load forecasts (pseudo-measurements) are typically used, and thus an…
Real-time control of distribution networks requires accurate information about the system state. In practice, however, such information is difficult to obtain because real-time measurements are available only at a limited number of…
This paper presents an innovative approach to micro-phasor measurement unit (micro-PMU) placement in unbalanced distribution networks. The methodology accounts for the presence of single-and-two-phase laterals and acknowledges the fact that…
This manuscript presents novel techniques for identifying the switch states, phase identification, and estimation of equipment parameters in multi-phase low voltage electrical grids, which is a major challenge in long-standing German low…
Efficient and accurate state estimation is essential for the optimal management of the future smart grid. However, to meet the requirements of deploying the future grid at a large scale, the state estimation algorithm must be able to…
This work presents a distributed method for control centers to monitor the operating condition of a power network, i.e., to estimate the network state, and to ultimately determine the occurrence of threatening situations. State estimation…
The small amount of measurements in distribution grids makes their monitoring more difficult. Topological observability may not be possible, and thus, pseudo-measurements are needed to perform state estimation, which is required to control…
This paper presents an information-theoretic approach to address the phasor measurement unit (PMU) placement problem in electric power systems. Different from the conventional 'topological observability' based approaches, this paper…
Sensor placement optimization methods have been studied extensively. They can be applied to a wide range of applications, including surveillance of known environments, optimal locations for 5G towers, and placement of missile defense…
We study the problem of distributed state estimation in a network of sensing units that can exchange their measurements but the rate of communication between the units is constrained. The units collect noisy, possibly only partial…
We develop greedy algorithms to approximate the optimal solution to the multi-fidelity sensor selection problem, which is a cost constrained optimization problem prescribing the placement and number of cheap (low signal-to-noise) and…
Belief propagation is an algorithm that is known from statistical physics and computer science. It provides an efficient way of calculating marginals that involve large sums of products which are efficiently rearranged into nested products…
The precise knowledge regarding the state of the power grid is important in order to ensure optimal and reliable grid operation. Specifically, knowing the state of the distribution grid becomes increasingly important as more renewable…
In this paper, phasor measurement unit (PMU) placement for power grid state estimation under different degrees of observability is studied. Observability degree is the depth of the buses' reachability by the placed PMUs and thus constitutes…
We consider the exploration problem: an agent equipped with a depth sensor must map out a previously unknown environment using as few sensor measurements as possible. We propose an approach based on supervised learning of a greedy…
Motivated by increasing penetration of distributed generators (DGs) and fast development of micro-phasor measurement units ({\mu}PMUs), this paper proposes a novel graph-based faulted line identification algorithm using a limited number of…
This paper proposes a DC microgrid state estimation and sensor placement method based on compressive sensing. Formulations of various types of measurements and components are developed under the proposed framework. A measurement placing…
