Diffusion Augmented Complex Maximum Total Correntropy Algorithm for Power System Frequency Estimation

Currently, adaptive filtering algorithms have been widely applied in frequency estimation for power systems. However, research on diffusion tasks remains insufficient. Existing diffusion adaptive frequency estimation algorithms exhibit certain limitations in handling input noise and lack robustness against impulsive noise. Moreover, traditional adaptive filtering algorithms designed based on the strictly-linear (SL) model fail to effectively address frequency estimation challenges in unbalanced three-phase power systems. To address these issues, this letter proposes an improved diffusion augmented complex maximum total correntropy (DAMTCC) algorithm based on the widely linear (WL) model. The proposed algorithm not only significantly enhances the capability to handle input noise but also demonstrates superior robustness to impulsive noise. Furthermore, it successfully resolves the critical challenge of frequency estimation in unbalanced three-phase power systems, offering an efficient and reliable solution for diffusion power system frequency estimation. Finally, we analyze the stability of the algorithm and computer simulations verify the excellent performance of the algorithm.
