Abstract: A method for performing synchrophasor estimation of an input signal, whereby the input signal is a sinusoidal power system voltage or current signal, comprising: a. Periodic sampling of a continuous time-domain waveform, consisting of a power system voltage or current signal, to obtain a discrete time-domain function; b. Transforming a discrete time-domain function to a discrete frequency-domain function; c. Estimating from the discrete frequency-domain function the instantaneous parameters of a synchrophasor of the sampled continuous time-domain waveform, the instantaneous parameters comprising a frequency, an amplitude and a phase angle. The method is directed to an improvement of the enhanced IpDFT-based synchrophasor estimation which takes into account interharmonic tones.

Abstract: In the case of a method for determining a charge acceptance ICA of a rechargeable battery, the battery is computationally split up into a predetermined number n of compartments i having a respective maximum charge capacitance Ci, which are connected in parallel via resistances Ri, and the charge acceptance ICA of the battery is determined on the basis of the charge capacitance C1 and the resistance R1 of the compartment adjacent to the battery terminals. The invention also relates to a method for charging a rechargeable battery.
