Study of the utilization and benefits of phasor measurement units for large scale power system state estimation

This thesis will investigate the impact of the use of the Phasor Measurement Units
(PMU) on the state estimation problem. First, incorporation of the PMU measurements in a
conventional state estimation program will be discussed. Then, the effect of adding PMU
measurements on the state estimation solution accuracy will be studied. Bad data
processing in the presence of PMU measurements will also be presented. Finally, a multiarea
state estimation method will be developed. This method involves a two level
estimation scheme, where the first level estimation is carried out by each area
independently. The second level estimation is required in order to coordinate the solutions
obtained by each area and also to detect and identify errors in the boundary measurements.
The first objective of this thesis is to formulate the full weighted least square state
estimation method using PMUs. The second objective is to derive the linear formulation of
the state estimation problem when using only PMUs. The final objective is to formulate a
two level multi-area state estimation scheme and illlustrate its performance via simulation
examples.
