Phasor measurement unit optimization in smart grids using artificial neural network
Abstract
The wide area measurements systems (WAMS) play a vital role in the operation of smart grids. The phasor measurement units (PMU) or synchrophasors are one of the principle components under WAMS. PMU in a smart grid converts power system signals into phasor from voltage and current which enhances the observability of the power system. A variety of operations is performed by the PMUs such as adaptive relaying, instability prediction, state estimation, improved control, fault and disturbance recording, transmission and generation modeling verification, wide area protection and detection of fault location. The PMUs can improve the performance of grid operations and monitoring. Thus, PMU optimization is very necessary to achieve the desired power system observability. The performance of the PMUs can be optimized using artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. The novice method of monitoring maximum power transfer using PMUs equipped with artificial neural networks has been discussed in this paper. In this paper, a two-bus system model is developed that can be generalized to multiple bus systems. The proposed method is novel, simple, feasible, and cost effective for smart grids.
