Abstract

The IEEE Std C37.118.1(a) describes synchrophasor measurement by a phasor measurement unit (PMU) for the system fundamental frequency. Harmonic synchrophasor, i.e., synchrophasor measured for harmonic frequencies, is not considered in the standard. Harmonic synchrophasor is useful for harmonic state estimation, power quality (PQ) monitoring, and harmonic power flow analysis. In this paper, we investigate the usability of the standard basic synchrophasor estimation model for the estimation of harmonic phasor (HP) up to the 50th harmonic as advised by the IEC Std 61000-4-7. For the estimation of HPs, an application of the flat-top (FT) finite-impulse-response (FIR) filter is proposed. Results for the maximally flat differentiator and the interpolated discrete Fourier transform (DFT) are also presented, confirming the superior performance of the proposed FT filter approach. HP estimation is verified with extended tests of the IEEE Std C37.118.1(a), including steady-state and dynamic conditions with additive 60-dB noise.
