GEN-SE Generalized State Estimation

This package represents the next generation in power system state estimators. It estimates the State, Status (Configuration) and Network Parameters of a power system. The conventional estimation of network "state" (primarily bus voltages) is only a subset of the process of constructing a statistically "best" on-line model of the system, with which to perform monitoring and optimization functions. This estimator was explicitly conceived, designed and developed to generalize the concept of model estimation:

• To perform state, switch status, and parameter estimation calculations, including bad data analysis, more successfully than present estimators.
• To combine accurate modeling of devices and practical engineering requirements with extreme reliability and computation speed.
• To have a long software life-cycle, with maximum flexibility for future advances in the technology.

The GEN-SE estimator incorporates the best and fastest techniques of orthogonal transformation, for maximum robustness. It is already in on-line application in a number of major control centers. Many more EMS implementations are currently in progress.
