Abstract: Utilization of phasor measurement units (PMUs) in the monitoring, protection and control of power systems has become increasingly important in recent years. The aim of the optimal PMU placement (OPP) problem is to provide the minimal PMU installations to ensure full observability of the power system. Several methods, based on mathematical and heuristic algorithms, have been suggested for the OPP problem. This paper presents a thorough description of the state of the art of the optimization methods applied to the OPP problem, analyzing and classifying current and future research trends in this field.
