This estimate of the state vector provides the description of the system necessary for the operation and security monitoring. Many methods are described in the literature for solving the state estimation problem, the most important of which are the classical weighted least squares method and the nondeterministic genetic based method; however both showed drawbacks. In this paper a modified version of the genetic algorithm power system state estimation is introduced, Sensitivity of the proposed algorithm to genetic operators is discussed, the algorithm is applied to case studies and finally it is compared with the classical weighted least squares method formulation.}, journal = {International Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering}, volume = {3}, number = {7}, year = {2009}, pages = {1438 - 1447}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10274}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/31}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 31, 2009}, }
