Abstract:
Remedial Action Schemes (RAS) provide automatic control action with high impact on system performance. In order to improve the resilience of the RAS against any single node failure and to guarantee the secured and reliable operation of the power systems, distributed implementations of the RAS is researched upon. The input data to such a distributed RAS must be of high quality. In addition, RAS operation must be fast. Traditional centralized state estimation, which feeds data to RAS is slow and cannot meet the requirements of RAS. New approach needs to be developed to provide the fast and accurate data to RAS. In order to solve this problem, distributed state estimation is developed as an alternative strategy to feed data to the RAS. This paper discusses the implementation of Distributed Linear State Estimation (DLSE) in a decentralized platform called Resilient Information Architecture Platform for Smart Grid (RIAPS). The DLSE algorithm is fully implemented in RIAPS platform and validated on a real-time testbed consisting of Real Time Digital Simulator, Phasor Measurement Units and BeagleBones. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated through online simulations on IEEE 14-bus test system under various cyber failures.
