Interharmonics Analysis Based on Interpolating Windowed FFT Algorithm

摘要

The interharmonics, which are the same as integer harmonics, have serious impacts on the design of harmonics compensation equipment. Therefore, it is important to measure interharmonics accurately. The interharmonics cannot be obtained accurately by using fast Fourier transform (FFT) for an unsynchronized sample sequence analysis because of large errors in such cases. To reduce the errors caused by using FFT for an unsynchronized sample sequence analysis and to improve the measuring precision of interharmonics in electric power systems, an interharmonics estimation method based on the interpolation FFT algorithm is proposed. An algorithm for estimating interharmonics parameters based on the Blackman-Harris window, Rife-Vincent (I) window, and Rife-Vincent (III) window is given. Simulation results demonstrate that by using the proposed algorithm for the unsynchronized sample sequence analysis, the estimated interharmonics frequency, amplitude, and phase are highly accurate
