Abstract

The paper investigates the application of synchronized phasor measurements, which are available from Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs), in the power system state estimation. In order to avoid changes in the type of the input measurements of the classical state estimator, which runs in the control centre, the proposed model utilizes voltage and current phasors to calculate pseudo-measurements such as pseudo-voltages, power flows and power injections. These pseudo-measurements are used together with the voltage phasor magnitudes and the conventional measurements in the iterative procedure. The IEEE 14, 30, 57 and 118 buses test systems as well as the mathematical model of the Croatian transmission power system were used as the test systems. The results of the simulation were compared with the classical state estimator, which uses only conventional measurements. The effect of the voltage phasor angles on the state estimator performance was investigated.
