State Estimation
State Estimation is the process of assigning a value to an unknown system
state variable based on measurements from that system according to some
criteria.
The process involves imperfect measurements that are redundant and the
process of estimating the system states is based on a statistical criterion that
estimates the true value of the state variables to minimize or maximize the
selected criterion.
Most Commonly used criterion for State Estimator in Power System is the
Weighted Least Square Criteria.
It originated in the aerospace industry where the basic problem have
involved the location of an aerospace vehicle (i.e. missile , airplane, or
space vehicle) and the estimation of its trajectory given redundant and
imperfect measurements of its position and velocity vector.
In many applications, these measurements are based on optical
observations and/or radar signals that may be contaminated with
noise and may contain system measurement errors.
In the Power System, The State Variables are the voltage
Magnitudes and Relative Phase Angles at the System Nodes.
The inputs to an estimator are imperfect power system
measurements of voltage magnitude and power, VAR, or ampere
flow quantities.
The Estimator is designed to produce the “best estimate” of the
system voltage and phase angles, recognizing that there are
errors in the measured quantities and that they may be redundant
measurements.
SE Measurement Types
What Measurements Can Be Used?
Bus voltage magnitudes.
Real, reactive and ampere injections.
Real, reactive and ampere branch flows.
Bus voltage magnitude and angle differences.
Transformer tap/phase settings.
Sums of real and reactive power flows.
Real and reactive zone interchanges.
Unpaired measurements ok

Virtual Measurements
1. Consider junction buses with neither power generation nor load
Assuming 3 junction buses, then
Total measurements exceeds  system is observable (virtual)

Contingency Analysis
 Allows the system to be operated defensively
 Many problems in power systems can cause
serious trouble within a rapid time period and the
human operator can not respond fast enough
 cascading failures
 models possible system troubles before they arise
 Using a model of the power system, a computer
algorithm predicts future operating states and gives
alarms to any potential overloads or out-of-voltage
limits
