Method to estimate sag frequency in doubly fed induction generator integrated power system based on adaptive kernel density estimation.

Voltage sag frequency estimation is necessary for understanding the voltage sag severity in power system and offering full information for the interested parties to mitigate voltage sag. The high penetration of wind power in the power system and the uncertainty of the fault distribution raise new challenges to accurate voltage sag frequency estimation. This study presents a systematic voltage sag frequency estimation method, considering the fault distribution density, fault ride‐through (FRT) process of wind turbines during voltage sag and the interval characteristic of voltage sag frequency. First, this study proposes a fault distribution estimation model based on adaptive kernel density. Second, this study proposes a method for calculating the residual voltage and duration of voltage sag during FRT and combines the common distance protection action to analyse the effect on voltage sag by FRT process of wind turbines. Lastly, this study proposes an interval‐valued voltage sag estimation method considering the interval characteristics of fault rate in the power system. IEEE 30‐bus test system is used to verify the proposed method, the estimation results show better performance of the proposed method compared with the typical estimation methods.
