Power quality analysis using Discrete Orthogonal S-transform (DOST)
Power quality is one of the major issues in the modern electrical power world. The widespread usage of power electronic devices and non-linear loads make the power system more vulnerable to the power quality disturbances. As the power grids are expanding more and more because of the renewable sources, it necessitates responsive detection and accurate classification of power quality disturbances for corrective measures. This paper presents a new approach for power quality analysis using an orthogonal timefrequency representation of S-transform called Discrete Orthogonal S-transform (DOST). These power quality disturbances are generated on EHV transmission line under different fault and load condition. Different power quality disturbances have been analyzed using the short time Fourier transform (STFT), discrete wavelet transform (DWT), S-transform (ST) and DOST. Different case studies validate the superiority of DOST over other transforms in a more efficient way to monitor the power quality disturbances.
