Identifying Parameter Errors via Multiple Measurement Scans

摘要

This paper investigates the problem of network parameter error detection and identification in power systems. Recently, a parameter error identification method which is based on Lagrange multipliers corresponding to a single measurement scan has been developed. This paper provides an improvement of this method via the use of multiple measurement scans which increases the local redundancy at no additional cost. This leads to identification of errors which could otherwise not be identified. The paper presents a detailed analysis of the limitations of the single scan method and also shows the relationship between the number of scans, the normalized Lagrange multipliers and the normalized residuals. The presented method is easy to implement since estimation of different scans can be executed independent of each other by using an existing state estimation program. Simulations on IEEE 14-, 30-, and 118-bus systems are provided to illustrate the proposed approach of parameter error identification.
