Abstract
This paper presents a comprehensive approach for performing phasor and frequency estimation from voltage and/or current signals of the modern power system. Undesirable components, such as decaying DC, if present in the input signal, are first attenuated using a complex-gain filter. The initial estimates of phasor and frequency are obtained next using the discrete Fourier transform and an improved estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance technique, respectively. Finally, the accuracy of phasor and frequency estimates are increased based on the identified system condition. Simulations performed to evaluate the proposed approach confirm that it can do fast and accurate estimation of phasor and frequency under diverse operating conditions, making it ideal for wide-area monitoring, protection, and control applications in power systems.

Summary
Optimal energy management in smart grids requires an enhanced visualization of its system parameters, e.g., voltage/current phasors and frequency. Performance evaluation of the proposed approach using different test signals indicates that it makes the following salient contributions: 2 It efficiently suppresses undesirable components present in the input signal, and can be applied to both voltage and current signals. It provides fast, accurate, and robust phasor and frequency estimates under diverse operating conditions (faults, frequency ramps, power swings, harmonics). Accurate, and robust phasor and frequency estimates under diverse operating conditions (faults, frequency ramps, power swings, harmonics) It detects abnormal system conditions quickly (in less than one-cycle). It satisfies the requirements of relevant IEEE and IEC Standards (this paper focuses on P-class PMUs which have more stringent speed requirements) [29,30]
