Comparing Kalman Filters and Observers for Power System Dynamic State Estimation with Model Uncertainty and Malicious Cyber Attacks
Kalman filters and observers are two main classes of dynamic state estimation
(DSE) routines. Power system DSE has been implemented by various Kalman
filters, such as the extended Kalman filter (EKF) and the unscented Kalman
filter (UKF). In this paper, we discuss two challenges for an effective power
system DSE: (a) model uncertainty and (b) potential cyber attacks. To address
this, the cubature Kalman filter (CKF) and a nonlinear observer are introduced
and implemented. Various Kalman filters and the observer are then tested on the
16-machine, 68-bus system given realistic scenarios under model uncertainty and
different types of cyber attacks against synchrophasor measurements. It is
shown that CKF and the observer are more robust to model uncertainty and cyber
attacks than their counterparts. Based on the tests, a thorough qualitative
comparison is also performed for Kalman filter routines and observers.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1508.0725
Observer design for systems with an energy-preserving non-linearity
Observer design is considered for a class of non-linear systems whose
non-linear part is energy preserving. A strategy to construct convergent
observers for this class of non-linear system is presented. The approach has
the advantage that it is possible, via convex programming, to prove whether the
constructed observer converges, in contrast to several existing approaches to
observer design for non-linear systems. Finally, the developed methods are
applied to the Lorenz attractor and to a low order model for shear fluid flow
Sliding mode adaptive state observation for time-delay uncertain nonlinear systems
In this paper a method to design robust adaptive sliding mode observers (ASMO) for a class of nonlinear time- delay systems with uncertainties, is proposed. The objective is to achieve insensitivity and robustness of the proposed sliding mode observer to matched disturbances. A novel systematic design method is synthesized to solve matching conditions and compute observer stabilizing gains. The Lyapunov-Krasovskii theorem is employed to prove the ultimate stability with arbitrary boundedness radius of the estimation error of the proposed filter. Finally, the ability of ASMO for fault reconstruction is studied
A Multi-Observer Based Estimation Framework for Nonlinear Systems under Sensor Attacks
We address the problem of state estimation and attack isolation for general
discrete-time nonlinear systems when sensors are corrupted by (potentially
unbounded) attack signals. For a large class of nonlinear plants and observers,
we provide a general estimation scheme, built around the idea of sensor
redundancy and multi-observer, capable of reconstructing the system state in
spite of sensor attacks and noise. This scheme has been proposed by others for
linear systems/observers and here we propose a unifying framework for a much
larger class of nonlinear systems/observers. Using the proposed estimator, we
provide an isolation algorithm to pinpoint attacks on sensors during sliding
time windows. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the performance of
our tools.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1806.0648
LMI-Based Reset Unknown Input Observer for State Estimation of Linear Uncertain Systems
This paper proposes a novel kind of Unknown Input Observer (UIO) called Reset
Unknown Input Observer (R-UIO) for state estimation of linear systems in the
presence of disturbance using Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) techniques. In
R-UIO, the states of the observer are reset to the after-reset value based on
an appropriate reset law in order to decrease the norm and settling time
of estimation error. It is shown that the application of the reset theory to
the UIOs in the LTI framework can significantly improve the transient response
of the observer. Moreover, the devised approach can be applied to both SISO and
MIMO systems. Furthermore, the stability and convergence analysis of the
devised R-UIO is addressed. Finally, the efficiency of the proposed method is
demonstrated by simulation results
