The standards of power system monitoring, control and protection are elevated by Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) as an auspicious tool. It is the purpose of this paper to determine the optimal number and locations of PMUs so as to make the system measurement model observable and also estimate the power system state. The proposed modelling approach which models PMU placement as an integer linear...

In this paper, signals measured by phasor measurement units (PMUs) are used to monitor power system small signal stability. In the proposed method, proper signals selected based on the modes observability and Prony analysis is employed to extract signal damping information (amplitude and frequency of participated modes) in real-time. The proposed method is simulated using a test signal in ideal...

Feature selection of input features is the key issue for pattern recognition-based transient stability assessment (TSA) methods. Considering the possible real-time information provided by phasor measurement units, a group of system-level classification features are firstly extracted from the power system operation condition to construct the original feature set. Then kernelized fuzzy rough sets...

In [4], we have studied the statistical properties and mono-fractality of the power system time series, voltage magnitude (V), frequency (f), and phase angle (θ). The power system data was measured using three Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) installed at Baylor University, Harris Substation, McDonald Observatory in the Texas Synchrophasor Network [1]. Our analysis of several data sets has shown...
