Prediction of Power Measurements Using Adaptive Filters

With the advent of smart grid concept, Internet of Things (IoT) and the deployment of smart meters, the cyberattack threats on power networks have increased due to the use of communication systems that can be accessed by adversaries. Attackers will have the ability to manipulate the outcomes of smart meters which in turn influence the core application of Energy Management System 9EMS): State Estimation (SE). Bad data analytic tools may fail to detect some attacks into measurements. Meanwhile, Machine Learning (ML) solutions have been proposed for detecting False Data Injection (FDI) attacks. However, there is a lack of ML time-series solutions presented in the state-of-the-art that is yet to be complex. In signal processing, time-series solutions do not only consider the signal, but also the statistics of the signal over time. Therefore, in this paper, a machine learning for time-series solutions is presented as an application to model the measurements of the power grid that are used in SE. The presented model takes into account adaptive linear and non-linear filters: Finite Impulse Response (FIR), and Infinite Impulse Response (IIR). The presented models are implemented and performed on the IEEE-118 bus system. The results indicate the advantage of applying those filters over the state-of-the-art machine learning solutions.

Digital Filter Design for Point-on-Wave Sensors: Highlighting Frequency Response Limitations and Enhancing Grid Simulation Accuracy

Data is proving to be the backbone of today's and, more importantly, tomorrow's grid. As the system changes and introduces fast-acting devices like power electronics, overall observability tends to decrease from the utility point-of-view. This can be mitigated by adding more high-fidelity sensors onto the grid, although this incurs a cost. These sensors are never ideal, and each have unique frequency responses that may influence the data produced. This may, in turn, impact the protection and control of the power grid. This paper presents a methodology of representing these point-on-wave sensors digitally by estimating digital-filter representations of them, thereby introducing means of improving the sensor models used in electromagnetic-transient (EMT) simulations. This may help with identifying potential high-frequency, sensor-induced distortions, and system resonance compensation. Three commercial-grade medium-voltage point-on-wave sensors are utilized in a lab environment to obtain experimental frequency responses with a frequency sweep, and it is shown that both Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) and Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter representations may approximate these responses with varying degrees of accuracy, though each has their own strengths and weaknesses. It is found that, in general, FIR estimation better approximates these sensors than IIR estimation does.

Novel 2D velocity estimation method for large transient events in plasmas

Dynamics of fast transient events are challenging to be analyzed with high time resolution. Such events can occur in fusion plasmas such as the filaments during edge-localized modes (ELMs). Here, we present a robust method—the spatial displacement estimation—for estimating the displacements of structures with fast dynamics from high spatial and time resolution imaging diagnostics [e.g., gas-puff imaging (GPI)] with sampling time temporal resolution. First, a background suppression method is shown, which suppresses the slowly time-evolving and spatially non-uniform background in the signal. In the second step, a two-dimensional polynomial trend subtraction method is presented to tackle the remaining polynomial order trend in the signal. After performing these pre-processing steps, the spatial displacement of the propagating structure is estimated from the two-dimensional spatial cross-correlation coefficient function calculated between consecutive frames. The method is tested for its robustness and accuracy by simulated Gaussian events and spatially displaced random noise. An example application of the method is presented on propagating ELM filaments measured by the GPI system on the National Spherical Torus Experiment spherical tokamak.
