Abstract

The waveforms distortion assessment nowadays requires great research efforts due to the contemporaneous presence of low- and high-frequency harmonics and interharmonics (up to 150 kHz). In this paper, a new multi-method approach allowed accurate and fast analysis of such waveforms. The method profitably integrates the performances of some basic methods: the Discrete Wavelet Transform, the sliding-window modified ESPRIT method, and the sliding-window Discrete Fourier Transform which uses a Nuttal window whose length is accurately calculated thanks to the application of the Prony method or the Particle Swarm Optimization. The accurate calculation of Nuttal window length guarantees a good performance in the high-frequency spectral components assessment while reduced computational efforts are obtained parallelizing the calculation of low- and high-frequency harmonics/interharmonics. Numerical applications on synthetic and measured waveforms demonstrate that the proposed method improves the performances of high-performing methods proposed in the recent relevant literature, in the examined cases.
