A Multi-Frequency DQ Impedance Measurement Algorithm for Single-Phase Vehicle-Grid System in Electrified Railways

Dq impedance measurement is of great importance as a part of the impedance-based analysis. At present, impedance of objects in single-phase vehicle-grid system are mainly obtained by injecting the voltage or current disturbance of one single frequency into the system circularly. However, as the number of measurement frequency points increases, there will produce much time-consuming of measurement. In this paper, a quick dq impedance measurement algorithm for single-phase vehicle-grid system based on multi-frequency sweep is proposed. First, pseudo-random binary sequences (PRBS) and ternary sequences are modified as the driving signals rather than directly injecting into the control link. Then three types of disturbance with specific frequency characteristics are introduced into the system and their parameters setting principle are given for the first time. According to the different characteristics of measurement objects, the proposed algorithms are also different to ensure the maximum specificity and sensitivity. Finally, for different objects in vehicle-grid system like traction network, single-phase converter and dual-interleaved converter, simulation and experimental results based on the hardware in the loop real-time simulation platform both show the correctness of the proposed algorithm, and the possible causes of errors are also analyzed in detail. Moreover, the proposed algorithm makes it possible to quickly measure the dq impedance of the single-phase vehicle-grid system, and the correctness of the theoretical and measured value can be judged and used for the stability analysis of electrical systems.
