With special relation to smart grids, this book provides clearand comprehensive explanation of how Digital Signal Processing(DSP) and Computational Intelligence (CI) techniques can be appliedto solve problems in the power system.
Its unique coverage bridges the gap between DSP, electricalpower and energy engineering systems, showing many differenttechniques applied to typical and expected system conditions withpractical power system examples.
Surveying all recent advances on DSP for power systems, thisbook enables engineers and researchers to understand the currentstate of the art and to develop new tools. It presents:
* an overview on the power system and electric signals, withdescription of the basic concepts of DSP commonly found in powersystem problems
* the application of several signal processing tools to problems,looking at power signal estimation and decomposition, patternrecognition techniques, detection of the power system signalvariations
* description of DSP in relation to measurements, power quality,monitoring, protection and control, and wide area monitoring
* a companion website with real signal data, several Matlab codeswith examples, DSP scripts and samples of signals for furtherprocessing, understanding and analysis
Practicing power systems engineers and utility engineers willfind this book invaluable, as will researchers of electrical powerand energy systems, postgraduate electrical engineering students,and staff at utility companies.
