Wide-Area Measurement-Driven Approaches For Power System Modeling And Analytics, Hesen Liu

Doctoral Dissertations

This dissertation presents wide-area measurement-driven approaches for power system modeling and analytics. Accurate power system dynamic models are the very basis of power system analysis, control, and operation. Meanwhile, phasor measurement data provide first-hand knowledge of power system dynamic behaviors. The idea of building out innovative applications with synchrophasor data is promising.

Taking advantage of the real-time wide-area measurements, one of phasor measurements’ novel applications is to develop a synchrophasor-based auto-regressive with exogenous inputs (ARX) model that can be updated online to estimate or predict system dynamic responses.

Furthermore, since auto-regressive models are in a big family, the ARX model …

Wide-Area Synchrophasor Data Server System And Data Analytics Platform, Dao Zhou

Doctoral Dissertations

As synchrophasor data start to play a significant role in power system operation and dynamic study, data processing and data analysis capability are critical to Wide-area measurement systems (WAMS). The Frequency Monitoring Network (FNET/GridEye) is a WAMS network that collects data from hundreds of Frequency Disturbance Recorders (FDRs) at the distribution level. The previous FNET/GridEye data center is limited by its data storage capability and computation power. Targeting scalability, extensibility, concurrency and robustness, a distributed data analytics platform is proposed to process large volume, high velocity dataset. A variety of real-time and non-real-time synchrophasor data analytics applications are hosted by …

Data Analytics And Application Developments Based On Synchrophasor Measurements, Jiahui Guo

Doctoral Dissertations

Frequency Monitoring Network (FNET) is an Internet‐based, wide‐area phasor measurement system that collects power system data using Frequency Disturbance Recorders (FDRs) that are installed at the distribution level. These synchrophasor measurements enable the monitoring of bulk power systems, and provides wide‐area situational awareness and disturbance analysis for understanding power system disturbances and system operations. Various data analytics and applications are built based on these valuable measurements.

Real-time situational awareness tools are of critical importance to power system operators. Knowledge of the scope and extent of facilities impacted, as well as the duration of their dependence on backup power, enables emergency …
