State Estimation

A data processing algorithm to estimate the static-state vector of voltage magnitudes and angles at all network buses.

Definition in an Article

Source: 1

The static state of an electric power system is defined as the vector of the voltage magnitudes and angles at all network buses. The static-state estimator is a data processing algorithm for converting redundant meter readings and other available information into an estimate of the static-state vector.
