The goal of the proposed procedure in this dissertation is the implementation of phasor measurement unit (PMU) based instability detection for islanding prediction procedures using decision tree and neural network modeling. The islanding in the power system define as a separation of the coherent group of generators from the rest of the system due to contingencies, in the case that all generator...

The knowledge of dynamic states of electrical machine, especially the relative rotor position and velocity, are very important for us to understand the machine performance and to possibly design advanced control systems. This paper addresses the state estimation problem of synchronous machines in power systems, both in deterministic and stochastic cases during small transients. The paper examin...

This paper presents a new framework of identifying cyber data attacks on synchrophasor measurements. We focus on detecting “unobservable” cyber data attacks that cannot be detected by any existing detection method that purely relies on measurements received at one time instant. Leveraging the approximate low-rank property of phasor measurement unit (PMU) data, we formulate the unobservable cybe...

The deployment of Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) could support a new generation of wide area monitoring and situational awareness systems, but this has not yet occurred. Instead, PMU data exchange occurs through bi-lateral agreements, each reflecting substantial human involvement. Our work proposes a new model for PMU data sharing, based upon today’s cloud computing technology base. Cloud-base...

The concept of phasor measurement and its application in power system monitoring and control are introduced in this paper. The example of application of PMU in a Campus Wide Area Monitoring System (WAMS) is then elaborated. With the availability of synchrophasor data measurement, it makes possible to establish the power system monitoring by directly employing spectral analysis of power or phase...

This paper presents an efficient observation concerning the enhancement of smart grid (SG) based on optimal placement phasor measurement units (OPP) using nonlinear programming (NLP). The proposed algorithm tries to achieve two objectives: (i) ascertain minimum number (PMUs) and (ii) increase redundancy SG at all buses. Synchronized current voltage phasors are obtained enhance accuracy state es...

results the mean distances between the crestal bone and the implant shoulder in group 1 were 1.01, 1.44, and 1.93 mm at the implant placement time, and at the 6 and 12-month postoperative intervals, respectively. in group 2, these distances were 1.35, 1.20, and 1.41 mm, respectively. there were no significant differences in the marginal bone resorption between the two groups (p > 0.05). conclus...

Power systems are extraordinary dynamic and complicated systems with various components and tools of generation, transmission, distribution, protection and control to guarantee the nation-wide interconnected grid's daily operation and safety. This paper reviews the latest Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) technology development and applications in power system dynamic analysis and reduced model par...

In order to obtain the transient power system measurement information, Wide Area Monitoring Systems (WAMS) should be able to collect Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) data in a timely manner. Therefore along with the continual deployment of PMUs in Great Britain (GB) transmission system substations, a high performance communications infrastructure is becoming essential with regard to the establishm...
