Job Description
Thesis Subject
Currently, distribution networks are not monitored in real time. This lack of monitoring is mainly due to conditions of system unobservability. These conditions are the result of the limited number of sensors deployed. In addition, the sensors deployed have different sampling frequencies and transmit their observations asynchronously. These are physical constraints that are difficult to overcome. This thesis aims to develop a cybersecurity-enabled distribution system state estimator. To this end, this work will first explore artificial intelligence models to create synthetic observations at selected locations to enable system observability. Next, the uncertainty created by the synthetic measurements will be quantified and modelled. Third, the modelled uncertainties will be used to mitigate bad data, such as cyber threats, in the state estimation process. Fourth, a real-world use case will be implemented to validate the state estimator.
