Je. Farach et al., AN OPTIMAL PROCEDURE FOR PLACING SENSORS AND ESTIMATING THE LOCATIONSOF HARMONIC SOURCES IN POWER-SYSTEMS, IEEE transactions on power delivery, 8(3), 1993, pp. 1303-1310
This paper addresses the problem of where best to take measurements to
estimate the locations of harmonic sources in power systems. Sensitiv
ity analysis and the minimum variance criterion are utilized to solve
this problem. The underdetermined case dealing with a few measurements
in a large system is analyzed. Three examples are provided to prove t
hat while the optimal sensor placement problem does not necessarily po
ssess a sequential solution, the sequential solution yields a very goo
d approximate solution.
