Abstract

In this paper, a novel algorithm, based on calculating the energy operator of a sinusoidal waveform to track the voltage flicker, is presented. The mathematical derivation of the proposed algorithm different circuit designs required to realize it are described. The proposed algorithm is fast and robust and requires only a few samples to calculate the energy. The simulation and the experimental results prove that the new algorithm can successfully track the envelope. There are no spikes in the envelope even when the voltage signal is suddenly changed at its peak value.
