Where Yij is the ij-th element of admittance matrix of the
system and Vj is the voltage phasor of j-th bus.
Therefore, if there is a zero-injection bus without PMU, whose
incident branches current phasors are all known except one,
then the current phasor of the unknown one could be obtained
using KCL equations.
B. Integer Linear Method for PMU Placement
The OPP formulation based topological observability
method finds a minimal set of PMUs such that a bus must be
reached at least once by the PMUs. The optimal placement of
PMUs for an N bus system is formulated as follows [13]:

Where, N is total no. of system buses wk is weight factor
accounting to the cost of installed PMU at bus k, X is a binary
variable vector whose entries are defined as Eq. 4 and AX is a
vector function that its entries are non-zero if the
corresponding bus voltage is observable using the given
measurement set and according to observability rules
mentioned above, it ensure full network observability while
minimizing the total installation cost of the PMUs, otherwise
its entries are zeio.

The procedure for building the constraint equations will be
described for three possible cases where there are (1) no
conventional measurement, (2) flow measurements or (3) flow
measurements as well as injection measurements (they may be
zero injections or measured injections).
C. Voltage Stability Indicator
The voltage stability problem is mostly reactive power
related problem. So, it is necessary to identify the buses in
multi-bus power system that can provide reactive power to
support voltage magnitude of the bus. In multi-bus power
system, basically, all buses are divided into two categories
as Generator bus (PV bus and Slack bus) and Load bus (PQ
bus). Generator buses provide reactive power to maintain
voltage magnitude.
The power system can be represented as:

Thus, this value of index L indicates the proximity of

and also the contributionof other loads.
The process for praposed methode, that is to search the
optimal location of PMUs for full observability of power
network using Linear integer programming technique and to
assess the voltage stability of system using L index, is given in
flow chart shown above in fig. 8.

IV. SOLUTION METHOD
A. PMU Placement
Case1: A system with no conventional measurements
In this case, the flow measurement and the zero injection
are ignored. In order to form the constraint set, the binary
connectivity matrix A, whose entries are defined below, will
be formed first:
o
,]
= _

Matrix A can be directly obtained from the bus admittance
matrix by transforming its entries into binary form.
Fig. 3. 5-bus system
Consider the 5-bus system and its measurement
configuration shown above. Building the A matrix for the 5-
bus system of Fig (3) yields:
A =

The constraints for this case can be formed as:

(16)
The use of 1 in the right hand side of the inequality ensures
that at least one of the variables appearing in this will be non-
zero. The constraint f4 1 implies that at least one PMU must
be placed at either one of buses 4 or 5 (or both) in order to
make bus 4 observable. Similarly, the second constraint f2 1
indicates that at least one PMU should be installed at any one
of the buses 1, 2, or 4 in order to make bus 2 observable.
Case 2: A system with some flow measurements
This case considers the situation where some flow
measurements may be present. The modifications needed in
the formulation for this case will again be illustrated using the
5-bus example, where a flow measurement (P and Q) is added
for branch 1-2. In this case, the constraints for bus 1 and 2 will
have to be modified accordingly. The constraint equations
associated with the terminal buses of the measured branch can
be merged into a single constraint. So, for the example shown
above, the constraints for buses 1 and 2 are merged into a joint
constraint as follows,

Which implies that if either one of the voltage phasors at
bus 1 or 2 is observable, the other one will be observable.
Applying this modification to the constraints for the shown
example of 5-bus system, the following set of final constraints
will be obtained:
(X) = _

Here, the constraints corresponding to buses 1 and 2 are
merged into a single constraint.
Case 3: A system with both injection measurements and flow
measurements.
This case considers the most general situation where both
injection and flow measurements may be present, but not
enough to make the entire system observable. Injection
measurements whether they are zero injections or not, are
treated the same way.
Consider again the 5-bus system shown in Fig 3, where bus
4 is assumed to be a zero injection bus. In this case, it is easy
to see that if the phasor voltages at any three out of the four
buses 2, 3, 4 and 5 are known, then the fourth one can be
calculated using the Kirchhoffs Current Law applied at bus 4
where the net injected current is known. Hence, the constraints
associated with these buses will have to be modified
accordingly as shown below:
1_ncw

If two sets are A and B, where set A is a subset of set B,
Then A+B=B and AB=A, where . serves as the logical
AND and + as logical OR. So, substituting the
expression for f

in the expression for f1_new , we can write f1_new
as:

Proceeding with the simplifications, the product x1 f4 f5 is
eliminated because it is the subset of x1, which already exists
in the expression. Using similar reasoning, x
3
f4 f5 and x4 f4
f5 are also eliminated. Finally, the expression for f1_new
simplifies to the following:
1_ncw
= x
1
+ x
2
+ x
3
+ x
4
1
Applying similar simplification logic to all other
expressions will give modified constraints.
Note that the constraints corresponding to all other buses
will remain the same as given in equation (7). One exception
is the constraint for bus 4 where the injection is measured (or
known). This constraint will be eliminated from the constraint
set. The reason for removing the constraints associated with
injection buses is that their effects are indirectly taken into
account by the product terms augmented to the constraints
associated with the neighboring buses.
B. L-index
For the 5-bus system shown in fig. 3 there are two load
buses (bus 4 and bus 5) and three generator buses (bus 1, slack
bus, and bus 2 and bus 3). So for load bus 4, the value of L-
index can be examined using equation (14) as shown below,

V. TEST RESULTS
The proposed formulation has been tested on IEEE-14 bus
system. Binary integer programming under MATLAB has
been used to solve this problem expressed by equations (2)
and (3). The proposed integer linear programming algorithm
has been tested on different cases.
IEEE 14-bus system is shown in Figure (4) The Information
of the system and zero injections are given in the Table I. The
results without and with zero injection measurement are
displayed in Tables II.

Effect of considering zero injections
In this case, Integer Programming method expressed by
equations (2) and (3) has been used to solve the optimal PMU
placement Problem with and without considering zero
injections. Results are given in Table II.
The voltage stability assement methdology is tested on
IEEE-14 bus sytem. In this paper, L-index method discussed
in section III.C is used to check the voltage stability of
different load buses. The effect of loading at any load bus is
assessed at increasing the load on that bus it self , to its
neighbouring bus connect to the bus under c
to the other weak load buses using L-index
shown in fig. 6 and fig. 7.
