21	Parameter estimation for nonincreasing exponential sums by Prony-like methods Potts, Daniel, Tasche, Manfred January 2012 (has links) For noiseless sampled data, we describe the close connections between Prony--like methods, namely the classical Prony method, the matrix pencil method and the ESPRIT method. Further we present a new efficient algorithm of matrix pencil factorization based on QR decomposition of a rectangular Hankel matrix. The algorithms of parameter estimation are also applied to sparse Fourier approximation and nonlinear approximation. info:eu-repo/classification/ddc/515 ddc:515 Parameterschätzung; Hankel-Matrix
22	A Wide-Area Perspective on Power System Operation and Dynamics Gardner, Robert Matthew 23 April 2008 (has links) Classically, wide-area synchronized power system monitoring has been an expensive task requiring significant investment in utility communications infrastructures for the service of relatively few costly sensors. The purpose of this research is to demonstrate the viability of power system monitoring from very low voltage levels (120 V). Challenging the accepted norms in power system monitoring, the document will present the use of inexpensive GPS time synchronized sensors in mass numbers at the distribution level. In the past, such low level monitoring has been overlooked due to a perceived imbalance between the required investment and the usefulness of the resulting deluge of information. However, distribution level monitoring offers several advantages over bulk transmission system monitoring. First, practically everyone with access to electricity also has a measurement port into the electric power system. Second, internet access and GPS availability have become pedestrian commodities providing a communications and synchronization infrastructure for the transmission of low-voltage measurements. Third, these ubiquitous measurement points exist in an interconnected fashion irrespective of utility boundaries. This work offers insight into which parameters are meaningful to monitor at the distribution level and provides applications that add unprecedented value to the data extracted from this level. System models comprising the entire Eastern Interconnection are exploited in conjunction with a bounty of distribution level measurement data for the development of wide-area disturbance detection, classification, analysis, and location routines. The main contributions of this work are fivefold: the introduction of a novel power system disturbance detection algorithm; the development of a power system oscillation damping analysis methodology; the development of several parametric and non-parametric power system disturbance location methods, new methods of power system phenomena visualization, and the proposal and mapping of an online power system event reporting scheme. / Ph.
