In a power system, it is known that parameters may carry small errors due to the weather conditions, such as temperature and humidity changes, as well as gross errors due to the miscommunication between the control center and circuit breakers and tap changers. Those incorrect parameters may cause biased state estimates, which may have serious results. Therefore, those parameter errors should be identified and corrected. Considering the increasing number of Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs), in this paper it is proposed to use PMU measurements in local parameter estimation. The developed parameter estimation will employ the robust Least Absolute Value (LAV) estimator to obtain unbiased estimates even in the presence of bad measurements.

Robust local parameter estimator based on least absolute value estimator

Changes in weather conditions such as temperature and humidity, miscommunication between the control center and circuit breaker transducers and tap changers, and inaccurate manufacturing data may cause parameter errors. Because of incorrect parameters, the state estimator may provide biased state estimates, which may lead to many serious economic and operational results. In order to prevent that, one must identify and correct those parameter errors. This work proposes a local parameter estimator based on th...

A Robust PMU Based Three-Phase State Estimator Using Modal Decoupling
Göl, Murat (2014-09-01)
Power systems do not always operate under fully balanced conditions because of unbalanced loads and untransposed transmission lines. Under such conditions, commonly used positive sequence equivalent will no longer be valid. On the other hand, use of full three-phase model will add significant computational burden for the considered application. This paper describes a simple approach to address this issue for the specific application of state estimation. The main idea is to exploit the linearity of the estim...
A novel approach to detection of some parameters of induction motors
Özlü Ertan, Hatice Gülçin; Colak, Baris (2007-05-05)
This paper describes a novel approach for offline stator leakage inductance and online stator resistance estimation that can be used for self-tuning of induction motor drives. The paper briefly describes the theory behind the approach. The proposed methods are experimentally tested on an industrial induction motor and also tested on a washing machine motor designed for variable speed operation. Test results are given and the robustness of the approach is illustrated.
A thermal conductivity based humidity sensor in a standard CMOS process
Okean, B; Akın, Tayfun (2004-01-29)
This paper presents a low-cost, thermal conductivity based humidity sensor implemented using a 0.6 mum CMOS process where suspended p-n junction diodes are used as the humidity sensitive elements. In this method, the difference between the thermal conductivities of air and water vapor at high temperatures is used. Humidity sensing idea is to compare the output voltages of two heated and thermally isolated diodes one of which is exposed to the environment and has a humidity dependent thermal conductance whil...
