Description

High-precision electric energy calculation method with wide dynamic range
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of measuring electric variables, and particularly relates to an electric energy calculation method.
Background
In modern electric energy meter metering technology, AD is used as a sampling device, and its numerical resolution is a very important parameter. The bit number of AD is generally 16 bits or 24 bits, and the corresponding resolution is 1/2 respectively 16 、1/2 24 Due to AD samplingThe quantization noise exists in the process, and the actual effective bit number of the AD is smaller than 16 bits and 24 bits.
Because the resolution is limited, the metering range and the metering precision of the electric energy meter show a trend of eliminating each other, namely, the metering range is wide, the metering precision cannot be very high, and the metering range cannot be very wide.
One solution, which simultaneously combines metering range and metering accuracy, is to use multiple ADs, sample the voltage and current signals simultaneously, and use different gains for different current ranges AD. For example: using two ADs, the first AD using 8-fold gain, mainly handling currents less than 0.1 Ib; the second AD uses a 4-fold gain, mainly handling currents greater than 0.1 Ib. Note that: the two ADs are sampled simultaneously, the first AD may have a truncated peak under high current conditions and the second AD may have excessive noise under low current conditions. In the last metering step, the calculation result of which AD is used is determined according to the current magnitude.
However, the above solution has the following drawbacks: modern electric energy meters are mostly realized by programming digital devices, and digital filter technology is used. In the electric energy calculation process, intermediate data of the digital filter need to be cached, the digital filter needs to perform multiply-add operation for a plurality of times point by point, and larger operation resources can be consumed. If the data of two ADs are calculated simultaneously, the computational power of the digital device presents a significant challenge. Taking the current mainstream Cortex-M3 kernel 200MHz main frequency singlechip as an example, assuming that the number of sampling points per cycle is 256, the power frequency is 50Hz, and the basic fundamental wave and full wave electric energy calculation takes about 15ms per cycle (20 ms). If data of two ADs are calculated simultaneously, the theory takes 30ms, and the calculation cannot be completed.
If a sequential calculation mode is adopted, that is, only data of one AD is calculated, and calculation of current AD data is stopped when the AD needs to be switched, and data of another AD is used instead, the problem of metering delay exists. Because many digital filters are involved in the power calculation process, and the digital filter output needs a certain time to stabilize, the longest may reach the second order. The need to use the calculation data of the last AD before the digital filter output stabilizes necessarily causes delays in the metering data, which is not acceptable in some situations where high-speed calculation is required.

For digital filters, practical engineering applications are typically implemented using differential equations, and the general representation of the K-order filter is:
y(n)=a 1 y(n-1)+a 2 y(n-2)+…+a k y(n-K)+b 0 x(n)+b 1 x(n-1)+b 2 x(n-2)+…+b k x(n-K);
where y (n) represents the nth output value of the filter, x (n) represents the nth input value of the filter, y (n-K) represents the upper K output values relative to the current output value, x (n-K) represents the upper K input values relative to the current input value, k=1, 2,3, …, K. a, a 1 ,a 2 ,a 3 ,…,a K ,b 1 ,b 2 ,b 3 ,…,b K Representing the filter coefficients.
The output buffer vector of the filter is expressed as:
O=[y(n-1),y(n-2),…,y(n-K)];
the input buffer vector of the filter is expressed as:
I=[x(n-1),x(n-2),…,x(n-K)];
the filter coefficient vectors M and N are:
M=[a 1 ,a 2 ,a 3 ,…,a K ], N=[b 1 ,b 2 ,b 3 ,…,b K ];
the nth output of the filter can be expressed as: y (n) =om+in.
In the power calculation, the digital filter includes a digital filter F1 and a digital filter F2. Typically, both are low pass filters. The cut-off frequency of the digital filter F1 is 1.5 times the power frequency, and the filter type can be considered as a butterworth low-pass filter of order 6. The digital filter F2 is used for filtering out the frequency content except the direct current component in the instantaneous power signal, and the direct current component of the instantaneous power is the RMS value of the power. In general, to consider both the filtering effect and the filter response time, the parameters of the digital filter F2 can be considered as: the second-order chebyshev type II low-pass digital filter has a filter cut-off frequency of 1.5 times of the power frequency. Since the instantaneous power frequency is 2 times the power frequency and the cut-off frequency is typically 0.75 times the instantaneous power frequency, the cut-off frequency of the filter is 0.75x2=1.5 times the power frequency.
The sampled data is input into the digital filter F1, an instantaneous power value is obtained according to the output of the digital filter F1, and then the instantaneous power value is input into the digital filter F2, so as to obtain the RMS value of the power.
Specifically, if fundamental wave power calculation is currently performed, the buffer memory of the digital filter F1 is adjusted, otherwise, the buffer memory of the digital filter F1 is not adjusted.
The method for adjusting the buffer memory of the digital filter F1 comprises the following steps: let the digital filter F1 be a K-stage filter, before the AD switch, the digital filter F1 will calculate and output the nth output value according to the nth input value, and then the output buffer vector of the current channel of the digital filter F1 is: o (O) I =[y I (n-1),y I (n-2),…,y I (n-K)]Wherein y is I (n-k) represents a previous kth output value of the digital filter F1 with respect to the current output value; the input buffer vector of the current channel of the digital filter F1 is: i I =[x I (n-1),x I (n-2),…,x I (n-K)]Wherein x is I (n-k) represents the previous kth input value of the digital filter F1 relative to the current input value.
When the AD is switched, if the amplitude solution values obtained by the AD before and after the switching in the amplitude and phase estimation process of the current signal are respectively A1 and A2, the output buffer vector of the current channel of the adjusted digital filter F1 is O I ’= O I XA 2/A1, the input buffer vector of the current channel of the adjusted digital filter F1 is I I ’= I I ×A2/A1。

Note that: for the voltage channels, since the sampling is synchronous and the gains of the voltage channels are the same, when the AD channel switching occurs, the buffer vectors of the voltage channels do not need to be switched.
The instantaneous power value can be calculated by the current output value u (n) of the digital filter F1 voltage channel and the current output value of the current channel i (n): p (n) =u (n) ×i (n).
The method for adjusting the buffer memory of the digital filter F2 comprises the following steps: let the digital filter F2 be a K-stage filter, before the AD switch, the digital filter F2 will calculate and output the nth output value according to the nth input value, and then the output buffer vector of the digital filter F2 is: o (O) P =[y P (n-1),y P (n-2),…,y P (n-K)]Wherein y is P (n-k) represents a previous kth output value of the digital filter F2 with respect to the current output value; the input buffer vector of the digital filter F2 is: i P =[x P (n-1),x P (n-2),…,x P (n-K)]Wherein x is P (n-k) represents the previous kth input value of the digital filter F2 relative to the current input value.
When the AD is switched, the amplitude solving values obtained by the AD before and after the switching in the amplitude and phase estimation process of the current signal are respectively A1 and A2, and the output buffer vector of the adjusted digital filter F2 is O P ’= O P X A2/A1, the input buffer vector of the adjusted digital filter F2 is I P ’= I P ×A2/A1。
After switching, the digital filter F2 is based on the new output buffer vector O P ' sum input cache vector I P ' and an nth input value x P (n) calculating an nth output value y P (n) and continuing to complete the calculation of the subsequent output value based on the subsequent input value. The output value of the digital filter F2 is the RMS value P of the power RMS . To further improve the stability of the power, it is also possible to consider an averaging operation of the output value of the digital filter F2.
Further, assuming that the power value between two adjacent sampling points is unchanged, according to P RMS And sampling frequency F S The power value for each sampling interval can be found: e=p RMS /F S
