This letter considers the application of higher order sliding mode (SM) observers to robustly and dynamically estimate the unmeasured state variables in modern power grids, in which both traditional and renewable energy sources coexist. In particular, a power grid composed of traditional, wind and inverter-based sources connected with dynamical loads is considered. Assuming that only the voltage phase angles are locally measured, a dedicated higher order SM observer is designed for each component, which is able to estimate in finite time the unmeasured state variables. Numerical simulations demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed scheme, also when compared with well-established linear observers.

Abstract
This letter considers the application of higher order sliding mode (SM) observers to robustly and dynamically estimate the unmeasured state variables in modern power grids, in which both traditional and renewable energy sources coexist. In particular, a power grid composed of traditional, wind and inverter-based sources connected with dynamical loads is considered. Assuming that only the voltage phase angles are locally measured, a dedicated higher order SM observer is designed for each component, which is able to estimate in finite time the unmeasured state variables. Numerical simulations demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed scheme, also when compared with well-established linear observers.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
