Electrical Power Grid Frequency Estimation with Fuzzy Boolean Nets

摘要: Power quality analysis involves the measurement of quantities that characterize a power supply waveform such as its frequency. The measurement of those quantities are regulated by internationally accepted standards from IEEE or IEC. Monitoring the delivered power quality is even more important due to recent advances in power electronics and also due to the increasing penetration of renewable energies in the electrical power grid. The primary suggested method by IEC to measure the power grid frequency is to count the number of zero crossings in the voltage waveform that occur during 0.2 s. The standard zero crossing method is usually applied to a filtered signal that has a non deterministic and frequency dependent delay. For monitoring the power grid a range between 42.5 and 57.5 Hz should be considered which means that the filter must be designed in order to attenuate the delay compensation …
