Bad Data Analysis Using the Composed Measurements Errors for Power System
State Estimation
Bretas, N.G.

I. INTRODUCTION
THE ability to detect and identify gross errors is one of the
most important attributes of the state estimation process
in power systems. This characteristic to deal with gross
errors makes the results of the state estimation process
preferable if compared to the SCADA raw data [1].
In order to mitigate the influence of gross errors on the
state estimation results, some robust estimators have been
introduced in power systems [2]. One of the first robust
state estimators applied to power systems was the
Weighted Least Squares (WLS) Estimator endowed with
the largest normalized residual test [3] for gross error
detection and identification. However, this combination is
not robust in the presence of single and multiple noninteracting gross errors [2]. Also, this estimator is not able
to reliably identify multiple interacting gross errors,
especially when the errors are conforming and/or occur in
Leverage Points, which are highly influential
measurements that attract the state estimation solution
towards them [4].

II. BACKGROUND [10-11]
Consider a power system with n buses and m
measurements. The power system is modeled, for state
estimation purposes, as a set of nonlinear algebraic
equations that is:
z = h( x) + e ,
(1)
where z (mx1) is the measurement vector, x (Nx1) is the
state vector, h: RN Rm (m > N) is a continuously
nonlinear differentiable function, e is the (mx1)
measurement error vector with zero mean and Gaussian
probability distribution, and N=2n-1 is the number of
unknown state variables to be estimated. Since number m
of measurements is higher than number N, a common
solution to estimate the states variables is the well-known
WLS method, which searches for state x, minimizing the
functional J ( x) = ( z h( x))T W ( z h( x)) , where W is a
symmetric and positive definite real matrix. In power
system state estimation, the weight matrix W is usually
chosen as the inverse of the measurement covariance
matrix. Functional J is a norm in the measurement vector
space Rm that is induced by the inner product
<u,v>=uTWv, that is:
J ( x ) = z h( x)

V. CONCLUSIONS
In this paper, more insights related to detectability of
gross errors in power system state estimation, using
geometrical approaches has been provided. This is
achieved decomposing the measurement error vector into
two components: the undetectable part and the detectable
one. The ratio between the w-norm of those quantities, the
undetectability index, gives the distance of a
measurement from the range space of the Jacobean
matrix. In other words, the UI is a measure of how
difficult it is to detect errors in those measurements.
According to the papers results, it is possible to conclude
that the higher a UI of a measurement the higher the
masked error. Based on the UI index, a way to recover the
masked errors, resulting from the measurement residual
estimating process has been proposed.
The total measurement residual is then composed. Also
the proposed measurement gross error detection and
identification test, using the measurement composed gross
error, as proposed in this paper, works very well. This
results show the gross error test as used in the existing
literature is not correct. It does not consider the masking
effect existing in the power system state estimation
Using the papers approach, we are working on a multiple
gross errors detection/identification test in power system
state estimation.
