Popis: Power system state estimation is classically formulated as a weighted least squares (WLS) optimization problem over the real domain, with the state variables being the voltage magnitudes and angles or the voltage real and imaginary parts. Although the voltages in ac networks are complex variables, a solution in the complex domain has not been previously reported; this is because a real function of complex variables is nonanalytic in its arguments, i.e., the Taylor series expansion in its arguments alone does not exist. By making use of the Wirtinger calculus, this paper presents a new implementation of the WLS state estimation problem in complex variables. The partial derivatives employed in the method give rise to a structure that is very simple to implement. The method can straightforwardly handle both legacy and phasor measurements; particularly, the processing of phasor current measurements does not require any special provisions, unlike previously reported hybrid state estimator implementations over the real domain. Numerical results are reported on networks with up to 9241 nodes, and they demonstrate that the accuracy of the complex variable implementation is competitive with that of the real variable constrained hybrid state estimator, while being significantly faster.
