Abstract

This paper presents a novel method based on the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) to estimate the saturated parameters of synchronous machines. The proposed methodology uses voltage and current measurements taken from the stator and the field windings to update the parameters of the synchronous machine during steady state operation. The method also utilizes measurements of the power angle in order to relate the measurements (in abc components) with the voltage equations in the qd0 reference frame. The proposed methodology has been tested and validated for a saturated synchronous machine.
