State estimators are used to monitor the operating states of power systems in modern EMS. It iteratively calculates the voltage profile of the currently operating power system with voltage, current, and power measurements gathered from the entire system. All the measurements are usually assumed to be obtained simultaneously. It is practically impossible, however, to maintain the synchronism of the measurement data. Recently, phasor measurements synchronized via satellite are used for the operation of these power systems. This paper describes the modified state estimator used to support the processing of synchronized phasor measurements. Synchronized phasor measurements are found to provide synchronism of measurement data and improve the accuracy/redundancy of the measurement data for state estimation. The details of the developed state estimation program and some numerical results of operation are presented.

In modern EMS, state estimation is used as a tool for monitoring how the power system operates. A state estimator iteratively calculates the voltage profile of the currently operating power system with voltage, current, and power measurements gathered from the entire system. It is usually assumed that all the measurements are obtained simultaneously. It, however, is not practically possible to maintain the synchronism of the measurements data. Recently, phasor measurements synchronized by satellites are used for the operation of the power systems. This paper describes the state estimator modified to support the processing of synchronized phasor measurements. Synchronized phasor measurements are found to provide synchronism of measurement data and improve the nccuracy/redundancy of the results of running it are presented.

A digital sampling algorithm that uses a two high resolution integrating Voltmeters which are synchronized by Phase Lock Loop (PLL) time clock for accurately measuring the parameters, active and reactive power, for sinusoidal power measurements is presented. The PLL technique provides high precision measurements, root mean square (rms), phase and complex voltage ratio, of the AC signal. The system has been designed to be used at the Korean Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) as a reference power standard for electrical power calibrations. The test results have shown that the accuracy of the measurements is better than $10 {\mu}W/VA$ and the level of uncertainty is valid for the power factor range zero to 1 for both lead and lag conditions. The system is fully automated and allows power measurements and calibration of high precision wattmeters and power calibrators at the main power frequencies 50 and 60 Hz.

It is important to measuring and monitoring about state vectors of power system for precise operation control. All state vectors cannot be measured because it is economically disadvantageous, so that some state vectors are determined using state estimator. Determination of observability is a important precondition of power system state estimation because state estimation can be performed when given power system is observable. Recently as time-synchronization technique progress, using the PMU(Phasor Measurement Unit), state vector can be measured directly so that voltage phasor and current phasor measurements can be used for power system estimation. In this paper, observability algorithm is proposed to determinate the observability with real/reactive injection power measurements and real/reactive lineflow power measurements of existing measurement system and with phasor measurements of PMU. The jacobian matrix is newly composed for state estimation with measurements of added PMU, and state estimation is performed with least square estimatior. Comparison between state estimation result of existing measurement system and that of measurement system added PMU is presented.

Frequency Domain Spectroscopy (FDS) measurements were performed on pressboard samples containing different moisture contents and on insulation system of power transformers. The results were used for evaluating sensitivity of the so-called X - Y model, which is applied for estimating moisture content in transformer insulation using the results of FDS measurements. Based on the observations of this analysis a simplified model, called X model, was introduced in which the presence of spacers in transformer insulation has been neglected. Finally, reliability of the X model was assessed by comparing estimates of moisture contents based on FDS measurements on field installed power transformers with moisture contents obtained from chemical analyses of their oil samples.

This paper discusses the effectiveness of onboard measurements and data extracted from weather information for speed-power analysis. Furthermore, validation results of hull and propeller cleaning and painting during dry-docking are discussed. Wind and wave information can be obtained from onboard measurements or weather information from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The weather information of a specified position and time is extracted from NOAA weather data and compared with onboard measurements. In addition, to validate the effects of hull cleaning and painting during dry-docking, speed-power analysis results of before and after dry-docking are compared. The results show that both onboard measurements and weather information show acceptable reliability when added resistance and speed-power analysis results are compared with each other. Moreover, the ship performance analysis (SPA) software clearly shows the effects of hull cleaning and painting, and it can provide reliable analysis results with either onboard measurements or weather information. In conclusion, it is confirmed that the analysis method and SPA software used in this study are effective in analyzing the ship's speed-power performance.

We have composed an experimental system using the superposition method to measure the nonlinearity of photodetectors for optical fiber power measurements. Also we have measured the nonlinearity of a high power detector and of a low power detector. The two detectors have shown good linearity within 0.01% and 0.02%, respectively, in the 50 ㏈ dynamic range. These detectors are used as reference detectors in optical fiber characteristics measurements.

This paper describes the measurements that provide a characterization of the code-domain channels of a CDMA base station transmitter. One of the measurements, called code-domain power(CDP), provides the distribution of power in the code domain channels. This measurement can be used to verify that the various channels are at expected power levels and to determine when one code channel is leaking energy into the other code channels. We develop module of CDP measurement in the CDMA system.

The measurements of the moderator temperature coefficient (MTC) are performed to demonstrate that the calculational model produces results that are consistent with the measurements. Since negative MTC is also a technical specification value that may limit the cycle length, it is important to measure it as accurately as possible. In this report, preferred choice of test method depending on the time in cycle, best power indication and temperature definition in MTC calculation were determined based on the MTC test results taken during initial startup testing and at 2/3 cycle burnup in the Yonggwang nuclear power plant. The results show that the ratio and rodded methods provided good agreement with the predictions during initial startup testing. However, near end-of-cycle the depletion method gives better results, and so is suggested to be used in the MTC measurements at 2/3 cycle burnup. The use of primary Delta T power as a power indicator in the MTC calculations is highly advisable since it responds with good consistent results very quickly to changes unlike secondary calorimetric power. For the appropriate temperature definitions used in the MTC calculations, it is considered that the arithmetic average temperature measured simply by inlet and outlet thermocouples is preferred. Although volumetric average temperature provides better results, the improvement is not sufficient to compensate for the simplicity of calculations by arithmetic average temperature.

In this paper, we present the description and results of experimental study of the sound power measurements based on International Standards ISO 3741 and 3745. The sound power emitted by a calibrated reference sound source was measured in a reverberation room and a free field over a reflecting plane, using the precision methods of International Standards ISO 3741 direct method and ISO 3745, respectively. The sound power measurements carried out in this study give accurate estimation and also show that both methods for determining the sound power levels of a sound source in a reverberation room and a free field over a reflecting plane, according to the ISO 3741 and 3745, respectively, have proved equally good.
