Please allow me explain a little bit on the use of the state estimation 
program. 

1) 'measure' is a structure consisting of all measurements. Presently 8 types 
of measurements are supported including real power line flow through from end, 
real power line flow through to end, generator real power output, bus voltage 
angle, reactive power line flow through from end, reactive power line flow 
through to end, generator reactive power output, bus voltage magnitude 
(shortened for PF, PT, PG, Va, QF, QT, QG, Vm respectively). Different types of 
measurements are assigned to different members of the 'measure' structure, such 
as measure.PF, measure.PT, etc. 

2) 'idx' is also a structure indicating the index of a specific measurement in 
its kind. For example, statement "idx.idx_zPF = [1;2];" means the measurements 
of the real power at from end of the 1st and 2nd branches are available, which 
will be fed into SE engine to do state estimation. Another example would be 
"idx.idx_zVm = [2;3];". It means the voltage magnitude measurements for the 2nd 
and 3rd buses are available. 

3) Please note that the order of the indices in 'idx' should be consistent with 
the order of measurements in 'measure'. For example, "measure.Vm = 
[1.04;0.98];", "idx.idx_zVm = [2;3];". These two statements combined indicate 
the voltage magnitude measurement at 2nd bus is 1.04pu, and 0.98pu at 3rd bus.

4) Please also note that the numbers in 'idx' are all indices, not bus numbers. 
One can use MATPOWER functions 'ext2int.m' and 'int2ext.m' to do conversion 
between internal and external bus numbering to further facilitate the use of 
the program.

5) For more information on the program, please refer to the "cpf_se_intro.pdf" 
under "extra" folder.

Hope this helps.

Happy New Year to all!

  Subject: Question about state estimation


  Hi guys:
     I want to say thank you first,for offerring such a wonderful tool.But,I 
have met some problems when using the state estimation program.I want to 
know:How can I initialize the parameters such as idx and measures.I mean, where 
or which resource I can refer to. Really thank you if I can be instructed.
