Summary:This paper proposes an online identification and compensation scheme for a distorted waveform’s harmonic and interharmonic content in electrical circuits. The proposed novel identification scheme allows the simultaneous estimation of the harmonic components’ frequency, amplitude, and phase. One of the main characteristics of the proposed online identification scheme is how the harmonics and interharmonics are estimated using a fast-convergent state estimator based on the state-space representation of the harmonic content. The proposed estimator has a decentralized approach that relies on efficient implementation, a relevant result for real-time feedback control applications, such as power conditioners control. The decentralized structure allows, if needed, selective harmonic suppression. The paper exposes a case study of identifying and suppressing the harmonic and interharmonic content produced by a three-phase load connected to the electrical power grid to demonstrate the proposed estimator’s efficiency. Hardware-in-the-loop and simulation results validate the identifier effectiveness to determine in real time the harmonic content and how it can be used to reduce the total harmonic distortion through a nonlinear optimal tracking control scheme.
