Abstract
The accurate information of the wide-bandwidth impedance versus the frequency is urgently needed for evaluating the system resonances, instabilities, and operations of the railway traction power system (TPS), and to avoid/control the harmonic resonance and oscillation issues. As the system topology and detailed parameters of the TPS are not fully known even timely varying, we have to obtain the detailed wide-bandwidth impedance information through exciting the harmonic disturbance into the system, and then, calculating the response information. Therefore, a controlled wide-bandwidth impedance measurement approach is presented in this paper, in which, a butterfly-type disturbance circuit and chirp pulsewidth modulation signal model are incorporated to generate the desired controlled-bandwidth harmonics with a high aggregation as well as the average amplitude. Impedance measurement results of the proposed approach have been validated through both simulation and experiment. Considering the measured errors, the proposed method is efficient in testing the wide-bandwidth impedance of the single-phase railway traction system.
