Measurement techniques for stationary and time-varying harmonics

Frequency is an important factor for power system harmonics measurement. Accurate spectral analysis relies much on the correct identification of frequencies of the measured signals. In this paper, several commonly used methods for power system stationary and time-varying harmonics measurement are reviewed and compared according to the aspect of frequency identification. Recommendations for adopting proper harmonics detection methods under different measuring conditions are then suggested.
