Online Voltage Event Detection Using Synchrophasor Data with Structured Sparsity-Inducing Norms

This paper develops an accurate and computationally efficient data-driven framework to detect voltage events from PMU data streams. It develops an innovative Proximal Bilateral Random Projection (PBRP) algorithm to quickly decompose the PMU data matrix into a low-rank matrix, a row-sparse event-pattern matrix and a noise matrix. Here, the row-sparse pattern matrix significantly distinguishes events from normal behavior. These matrices are then fed into a clustering algorithm to separate voltage events from normal operating conditions. Large-scale numerical study results on real-world PMU data show that the proposed algorithm is computationally more efficient and achieves higher F scores than state-of-the-art benchmarks.
