Distribution system state estimation (DSSE) is one of the key elements of the monitoring activity of an active distribution network, and is the basis for every control and management application. The DSSE relies on real measurements collected by the distributed measurement system and on other available information, mainly obtained from historical data that help in obtaining observability. This prior information is necessary to derive the so called pseudomeasurements. Accurate input data are fundamental for an accurate estimation, as well as knowledge on possible correlation in the measured and pseudomeasured data. A degree of correlation can exist in the measured data, due to measurement devices, and among power consumptions or generations of some particular nodes.

The importance of including correlation in the weighted least square estimation approach is discussed using both traditional and synchronized measurements.

Abstract

Distribution system state estimation (DSSE) is one of the key elements of the monitoring activity of an active distribution network, and is the basis for every control and management application. The DSSE relies on real measurements collected by the distributed measurement system and on other available information, mainly obtained from historical data that help in obtaining observability. This prior information is necessary to derive the so called pseudomeasurements. Accurate input data are fundamental for an accurate estimation, as well as knowledge on possible correlation in the measured and pseudomeasured data. A degree of correlation can exist in the measured data, due to measurement devices, and among power consumptions or generations of some particular nodes. This paper presents an exhaustive analysis on the influence of correlations on the quality of the estimation. The importance of including correlation in the weighted least square estimation approach is discussed using both traditional and synchronized measurements. Results obtained on a 95-bus distribution network are presented and discussed.
