Abstract
This paper demonstrates the feasibility of implementing Real-Time State Estimators (RTSEs) for Active Distribution Networks (ADNs) in Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) by presenting an operational prototype. The prototype is based on a Linear State Estimator (LSE) that uses synchrophasor measurements from Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs). The underlying algorithm is the Sequential Discrete Kalman Filter (SDKF), an equivalent formulation of the Discrete Kalman Filter (DKF) for the case of uncorrelated measurement noise. In this regard, this work formally proves the equivalence the SDKF and the DKF, and highlights the suitability of the SDKF for an FPGA implementation by means of a computational complexity analysis. The developed prototype is validated using a case study adapted from the IEEE 34-node distribution test feeder.
