Digital Metering of Electrical Power Components Using Adaptive Non-Uniform Discrete Short Time Fourier Transform.

This paper presents an adaptive Goertzel filter bank based discrete short time Fourier transform (DSTFT) implementation algorithm, called adaptive non-uniform discrete short time Fourier transform (ANDSTFT) for online measurement of electrical power components using IEEE Standard 1459–2010. The proposed ANDSTFT algorithm utilizes effective combination of non-uniform discrete Fourier transform (NDFT) and window method to detect the spectrum of each individual finite short time segment of power signals at distinct, arbitrarily located frequencies. Compared with the well-established technique such as windowed FFT interpreted DSTFT based approaches, the proposed method offers (i) better accuracy (ii) higher degree of immunity and insensitivity to noise, and (iii) reduced computational complexity per sample interval. The simulation results have been given and its response time and accuracy have been compared with the conventional windowed FFT interpreted DSTFT based techniques. Real-time implementation of the proposed approach has also been presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
