Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advancements in our society has led to demands for an unprecedented supply of electrical energy that guarantees continuous, high-quality service. We face considerable challenges when it comes to meeting these demands. Therefore, power system engineers are increasingly turning to technological methodologies that, until recently, were considered outside their field of expertise. This is the case with signal processing analysis, which is now used in various aspects of power system analysis, planning, implementation, and operation. These aspects include design, simulation, stability assessment, state estimation, transient and fault behavior, operation, monitoring (PMU), protection, and more. The Special Issue on "Advances in Signal Processing for Power Systems" focuses on innovative applications of signal processing techniques to solve the problems posed by current and future electric power supplying systems. We are seeking contributions on topics related to the application of signal analysis techniques to power systems, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Time and frequency domain analysis of power system transients
- Time-frequency analysis of power system oscillations
- Signal processing in wide-area oscillation monitoring
- Power system communications and cyber-security
- Digital twins for power systems
- Real-time and accelerated-time simulation of power systems
- Real-time online oscillation detection
- Shifted Frequency Analysis (SFA)
- Hybrid simulation of power systems
- Aliasing issues in multi-rate simulation
- Power quality and harmonics
- Phase angle tracking from PMU data
- Enhancing wide-area measurement systems
- Online coherence detection for adaptive grid comtrol
- Signal processing methods in state estimation
- Signal processing in distribution systema
- Dynamic phasors
- Dynamic averaging methods
- Power-system protection, traveling-wave protection
- Signal processing in fault detection and location
- Power-electronic equipment interaction with the power grid
