Accurate measurement of power system frequency using a digital signal processing technique

摘要

This paper describes the design, computational aspects, and implementation of a digital signal processing technique for measuring the operating frequency of a power system. The technique provides correct and noise-free estimates for near-nominal, nominal, and off-nominal frequencies in about 25 ms, and it requires modest computations. The proposed technique is implemented using a DSP-based board and has been extensively tested using voltage signals obtained from a dynamic frequency source and from a power system. Some test results are presented in the paper.
