TLDR
The details of the network modeling and problem formulations used by MATPOWER, including its extensible OPF architecture, are presented, which are used internally to implement several extensions to the standard OPF problem, including piece-wise linear cost functions, dispatchable loads, generator capability curves, and branch angle difference limits.Abstract:
MATPOWER is an open-source Matlab-based power system simulation package that provides a high-level set of power flow, optimal power flow (OPF), and other tools targeted toward researchers, educators, and students. The OPF architecture is designed to be extensible, making it easy to add user-defined variables, costs, and constraints to the standard OPF problem. This paper presents the details of the network modeling and problem formulations used by MATPOWER, including its extensible OPF architecture. This structure is used internally to implement several extensions to the standard OPF problem, including piece-wise linear cost functions, dispatchable loads, generator capability curves, and branch angle difference limits. Simulation results are presented for a number of test cases comparing the performance of several available OPF solvers and demonstrating MATPOWER's ability to solve large-scale AC and DC OPF problems.read more

Risk Mitigation for Dynamic State Estimation Against Cyber Attacks and Unknown Inputs
TL;DR: In this article, a risk mitigation strategy based on dynamic state estimation is proposed to eliminate threat levels from the grid's unknown inputs and potential cyber-attacks, which requires: 1) the potentially incomplete knowledge of power system models and parameters and 2) real-time PMU measurements.

A Probabilistic Risk Mitigation Model for Cyber-Attacks to PMU Networks
TL;DR: A risk mitigation model for optimal response to cyber-attacks to PMU networks is proposed as a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) problem to prevent propagation of the cyber- attacks and maintain the observability of the power system.
