Abstract
Next-generation phasor measurement units (PMU) are expected to be more accurate than existing ones, especially to address the stricter requirements of future active distribution grids. From this perspective, the influence of acquisition wideband noise (which includes multiple contributions both in amplitude and in phase) has to be carefully evaluated. In this context, the contribution of this paper is twofold. First, it provides a general framework to evaluate the effect of wideband noise on synchrophasor amplitude, phase, frequency, and rate of change of frequency (ROCOF) estimation. The results of this analysis show that the influence of wideband noise can become critical for compliance with the requirements reported in the IEEE standards C37.118.1-2011 and C37.118.1a-2014, especially for frequency and ROCOF estimation. In addition, this paper reports general guidelines to choose the PMU effective resolution and sampling rate for which the impact of wideband noise on both P Class and M Class PMUs is negligible.
