Dynamic State Estimation under Cyber Attacks: A Comparative Study of Kalman Filters and Observers (1508.07252v1)
Published 28 Aug 2015 in cs.SY and math.OC
Abstract: Utilizing highly synchronized measurements from synchrophasors, dynamic state estimation (DSE) can be applied for real-time monitoring of smart grids. Concurrent DSE studies for power systems are intolerant to unknown inputs and potential attack vectors --- a research gap we will fill in this work. Particularly, we (a) present an overview of concurrent estimation techniques, highlighting key deficiencies, (b) develop DSE methods based on cubature Kalman filter and dynamic observers, (c) rigorously examine the strengths and weaknesses of the proposed methods under attack-vectors and unknown inputs, and (d) provide comprehensive recommendations for DSE. Numerical results and in-depth remarks are also presented.
