Abstract
In one embodiment, three substantially simultaneous phase waveforms may be converted into a first quadrature signal and a zero sequence signal. For each phase waveform, a power system digital frequency may be determined through analysis of the first quadrature signal (e.g., and at least one additional prior quadrature signal) while eliminating waveform phase angles from the analysis. Subsequently, demodulation of the first quadrature signal and zero sequence signal based on the power system digital frequency results in a positive sequence phasor, a negative sequence phasor, and a zero sequence phasor.
