Measurement and analysis experiences have shown that great difficulties arise in the interharmonics detection and measurement with acceptable levels of accuracy. In this paper, the spectral leakage problems of the discrete Fourier transform due to synchronization errors of interharmonics are analyzed. The time-domain averaging is investigated for the processing of harmonics in the framework of the IEC standards. A difference filter is proposed to detect interharmonics and can be compatible with the IEC standards. Simulations and the field results show the usefulness of the proposed methods.}, language = {en} }
