Summary: | The presence of the new liberalized markets has increased the interest in power-quality (PQ) disturbances due to their economic effect. In particular, in the case of disturbances caused by a single event (such as a capacitor switching or voltage sag), the waveform assessment can be difficult due to the rapid variations in waveform spectral component characteristics; these difficulties require a suitable choice of signal-processing techniques for spectral analysis and, in particular, the resort to time-frequency representations. In this paper, the adaptive Prony method is proposed to calculate PQ indices based on a time-frequency analysis of waveforms. Numerical applications on a simulated transient due to capacitor switching, a measured voltage sag, and a test waveform are also presented and discussed in order to investigate the validity of the proposed method. |
