Afterward, remote side in- cally, generator instability is a serious problem for power sys- formation such as frequency, RoCoF, and waveform distortion tems; generators must be protected against this condition; out- is extracted from the estimated voltages and currents and is uti- of-step OOS relaying is used to detect and protect the genera- lized as the input to CBR control.

The appar- flected by fault current levels, distortion of waveforms and ent impedance moves to a value very close to the origin upon characteristics of fault currents. During the fault, as the generator urements provides detection of faulty conditions much faster and the system oscillate, the trajectory moves. The fault is than legacy protection functions such as overcurrent protection, cleared 0. For this system, usually require collection of enough data to compute phasors, the critical clearing time is 0.

This means that the genera- resulting in fault detection delays. At widely adopted current differential protection. By contrast, DSE based protection examines DSE combines the dynamic model and the SV measurements, whether all the physical laws of the specific protection zone are solves the dynamic states of the system, and computes the con- satisfied and an internal fault is detected with any violation of sistency between the dynamic model and the measurements via any physical law.

Depending on the protection zone, physical the well-known chi-square test. Finally, the trip signal is issued laws may include KCLs, KVLs, motion laws, thermodynamic to open the circuit breaker of the transmission line if an internal laws, etc. The primary improvements of the DSE based protec- fault is detected.

Using such an approach high impedance, or tion compared to the existing protection approaches such as arcing faults are easily detected. A similar approach can be used current differential protection include: 1 speed: DSE based to design smart auto-reclosure procedures [58]. Specifically, the exact fault location tems; 3 DSE based protection approach checks all the physical should be determined to minimize the time spent searching for laws instead of KCLs only , and therefore can detect internal the fault location by repair crews, yielding reduced power out- faults with improved sensitivity and reliability.

The validity of the phasor domain measurements and the location of the fault using DSE based protection comes from the following key ad- algebraic equations, which are afterward solved to identify the vantages of DSE: 1 accurately tracking the dynamics of the location of the fault.

In this section, the advantages and dis- chronized phasor measurements from PMUs, such as voltage advantages of these two methods are discussed. An observer can also be nous machines and dynamic loads.

Thus, the model in 1 represents the electrical quantities the physical model predictions and the sensor outputs. In contrast, there exist derivative- and algorithmic details, both can be used to estimate the state free nonlinear Kalman filter-based DSEs, such as unscented of a dynamic system.

Besides, gain converge to the actual value. This, in general, is not an issue matrix design for an observer can be challenging for large non- since DSE runs continuously and in the long run, once it has linear systems due to high nonlinearity in state transition[14]. Furthermore, if the convergence of the estimated states to their accurate values is noise distribution deviates from assumptions such as Gaussian guaranteed as long as a proper observer gain is determined, and distribution, an observer may obtain better performances than the system is observable.

It should be noted that practically, a the traditional Kalman filter based DSEs since an observer only reasonable initial condition can typically be obtained by utiliz- requires the bounds for noise. Instead of Gaussian assumption ing power flow calculations or state estimation, or engineering based DSE, if robust DSE is adopted [15], it typically provides judgments or experiences.

DSE considers both process and measurement noise and derives IV. For a synchronous generator, jected to outliers and the model outputs can be corrupted by these devices are the governor which controls the mechanical gross errors due to control failures, incorrect model inputs, pa- power input and the automatic voltage regulator AVR which rameter errors, etc.

In the presence of outliers, both state controls the excitation voltage. To mitigate the these devices are the power electronics converters, which have influence of outliers, an observer needs to increase the assumed a few control options, for example, maximum power tracking error bounds, which would significantly decrease its perfor- and voltage control, real and reactive power control, real power mance in the absence of outliers. In addition, tistical test or developing robust DSEs, outliers can be automat- depending on operating conditions, the controls can switch to ically detected and suppressed without affecting DSE perfor- low voltage ride through logic, storage control, etc.

Since syn- mance when there are no outliers [1] [15]. DSE operating at a cycle scale can meet the re- and inversions at each time-step. In contrast, once the observer quirements of controllers for synchronous machines and con- is designed offline, state estimation can be performed with a verter control. For other applications such as protection and as- significantly smaller number of matrix multiplications, as the sociated controls, DSE needs to operate at faster time scales and calculations of observer gain are usually done offline assuming typically uses SV measurements or dynamic phasors.

No in the LQR costs to find control gains. However, this is usually not an issue as transient for small stability disturbance?

The estimated rotor speed of each gen- erator is used as a feedback signal in the MPC for excitation Centralized and Hierarchical Control control. A con- three-phase fault at the infinite bus in a single machine infinite trol law is then obtained using the system model and the dy- bus system.

This example uses a highly accurate Koopman namic state estimates via various control techniques, including model trained with random excitations. Some limitations of centralized con- trol that restrict its field implementation are: communication la- tencies can impact performance, an accurate model of the whole system at the central location is required, and communication Fig.

Nonlinear control methods are needed to ensure the stability A partial solution to the problems of centralized control is of the system against large disturbances, i. These methods machine locations and the estimates are sent to a central loca- either find a partially linear transformation of system dynamics, tion or PMU measurements are sent to a central location for called feedback linearization [27]-[28], or find a positive scalar performing DSE in a decentralized manner using a federation with a negative time derivative, called a Lyapunov function of estimators [22].

Global control laws are then developed at [29]-[30]. Feedback linearization is easier to formulate and use the central location along with local control laws for decentral- than Lyapunov functions, but the latter has better asymptotic ized locations. The local and global controls form the two levels stability characteristics.

The stability and transient stability of the system Fig. Long-term voltage instability detection and control can use originally proposed ap- proaches like sensitivities in [37] and modal analysis in [39]. In addition to the dynamic states, the network state and topol- ogy are required to monitor, detect, and control voltage insta- bility.

In this respect, the local DSE approaches discussed in [1] are combined with network state estimation, which can be fully based on PMUs or multi-rate measurements [38]. In principle, for long-term voltage instability, the system state can be up- dated at low rates less than 10 times per second.

One of the Fig. Control performance of decentralized hybrid-control advantages of DSE is its ability to provide full state estimates, thus enabling full-state feedback MPC controllers [40].

To address correspond to the point where long-term voltage instability is this issue, it is proposed that traditional LFCs should be assisted detected [41]. The phenomenon of con- are modeled as unmatched perturbations.

This improves the fre- cern is faster and a DSE used for this purpose must provide the quency stability margins compared to observer-based LFCs system dynamic states at a high rate 10 to 60 times per second ; such as [36] and is illustrated in Fig.

This requires even more rent transformers CTs , and MUs. Next, using the DAEs of the rigorous metering infrastructure and DSE should use a detailed line of interest, DSE estimates the dynamic states of the system, model with the full complement of state variables for the CBRs including SV voltages and currents at the remote side.
