Modified Weighted Least Squares Method to Improve Active Distribution System State Estimation

The development of communications and telecommunications infrastructure, followed by the extension of a new generation of smart distribution grids, has brought real-time control of distribution systems to electrical industry professionals’ attention. Also, the increasing use of distributed generation (DG) resources and the need for participation in the system voltage control, which is possible ...

The method of three-parameter Weibull distribution estimation

Abstract. In this paper we develop Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Improved Analytical (IA) numerical algorithms to estimate parameters of the Weibull distribution, namely, location, scale and shape parameters, using order statistics of a noncensored sample. Since ML method leads to multiextremal numerical problem we establish conditions to localize extremes of the ML function, which enables us to ...

Parameter Estimation In Weighted Rayleigh Distribution

Estimation of Scale Parameter Under a Bounded Loss Function

     The quadratic loss function has been used by decision-theoretic statisticians and economists for many years.  In this paper  the estimation of scale parameter under a bounded loss function, which is adequate for assessing quality and quality improvement, is considered with restriction to the principles of invariance and risk unbiasedness. An implicit form of minimum risk scale equivariant ...
