With special relation to smart grids, this book provides clear
and comprehensive explanation of how Digital Signal Processing
(DSP) and Computational Intelligence (CI) techniques can be applied
to solve problems in the power system.
Its unique coverage bridges the gap between DSP, electrical
power and energy engineering systems, showing many different
techniques applied to typical and expected system conditions with
practical power system examples.
Surveying all recent advances on DSP for power systems, this
book enables engineers and researchers to understand the current
state of the art and to develop new tools. It presents:
* an overview on the power system and electric signals, with
description of the basic concepts of DSP commonly found in power
system problems
* the application of several signal processing tools to problems,
looking at power signal estimation and decomposition, pattern
recognition techniques, detection of the power system signal
variations
* 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 codes
with examples, DSP scripts and samples of signals for further
processing, understanding and analysis
Practicing power systems engineers and utility engineers will
find this book invaluable, as will researchers of electrical power
and energy systems, postgraduate electrical engineering students,
and staff at utility companies.
Tentang Penulis
Professor Paulo F. Ribeiro, Calvin College, USA
Professor Ribeiro is professor of Engineering at Calvin College, Michigan. He has been involved with the application of advanced signal processing, applied to power quality and power systems in general, for the past fifteen years. For the past six years he has chaired the IEEE Task Force on Probabilistic Aspects of Harmonics. In 1994 he proposed the use of wallets to power quality applications; this has been followed by many people and has generated much research, several Masters and a Ph D Thesis. Dr. Ribeiro is active in the IEEE, CIGRE and IEC working groups on power quality, and is a Registered Professional Engineer in the State of Iowa.
