Title: Power system disturbance localization using recurrence quantification analysis and minimum-volume-enclosing ellipsoid

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1568673

A method for determining a location of a disturbance in a power system is provided. The method includes receiving data from a plurality of sensors distributed across the power system; performing a recurrence quantification analysis on the received data to identify a predetermined number of sensors, from the plurality of sensors, that are closest to the disturbance; constructing a plurality of minimum-volume-enclosing ellipsoids based on and enclosing the data received from the identified sensors; extracting one or more parameters from the plurality of minimum-volume-enclosing ellipsoids; inputting the one or more parameters into a multivariate-random-forest regression algorithm to determine the location of the disturbance and a power mismatch corresponding to the disturbance; and presenting, on one or more display units, the determined location of the disturbance and the determined power mismatch.
