experimental evaluation of envelope tracking techniques for voltage disturbances

in this paper a digital signal processor (dsp) based real time voltage envelope tracking system is developed and examined. the adaptive linear neuron (adaline) and the recursive least square (rls) algorithms are adopted for envelope tracking. the proposed adaline and rls algorithms give accurate results even under rapid dynamic changes. the paper investigates the effects of different parameters on the performance of the adaline algorithm and that of the rls algorithm. the experimental system is cantered around a texas instrument 16 bit fixed-point arithmetic (tms320lf2407a) evaluation board. both the adaline and the rls tracking algorithms are developed using the dsp-assembly language. a simple voltage flicker generator is implemented to produce various voltage disturbances. extensive tests of the proposed envelope tracking algorithms are conducted to evaluate their dynamic performance.
