Abstract:
A method for estimating an equivalent impedance (Z eq ) of a power grid (18) comprises: measuring a plurality of measurement values of a generator voltage (V gen ) and a generator current (I gen ) of at least one generator (12) connected to the power grid (18); generating a performance index (J) from the plurality of measurement values, the performance index being a function of the measurement values and the grid impedance (Z eq ); and determining an equivalent impedance (Z eq ) as the grid impedance, which minimizes the performance index (J). The performance index (J) is additionally a function of an angular error (δ), which accounts for a deviation of a grid frequency at a measurement of a measurement value from a nominal grid frequency, and the performance index (J) is additionally minimized with respect to the angular error (δ).
