The latest progress and the research direction on reducing computation error of periodic signal measurement are simply introduced firstly. The reason of computation error is analyzed in detail. Modified trapezoidal integral method is proposed to measure active power, which based on asynchronous sampled data. The method can reach an inerrable result. By computer simulation based on the new method, two examples are simulated, and the results are compared with other methods. The simulation results show that the new algorithm is capable of reducing the computation error effectually and computational complexity has little increased.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
