Abstract A high-accuracy photonics-assisted frequency measurement with rough-accurate compensation based on Mach-Zehnder interfering and power cancellation is proposed. A polarization division multiplexing dual-parallel Mach–Zehnder modulator (PDM-DPMZM) is employed to mix the unknown RF signal and sweep signal to optical field. The rough measurement is firstly performed by the interference of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) to realize fast frequency estimation. Then, based on the rough measurement result, the accurate measurement based on power cancellation is implemented in a much narrower range, which greatly improves the efficiency of frequency measurement. The simulation results show that the amplitude comparison function (ACF) established by interference can achieve a measurement error of less than 0.3 GHz over 0.5 ~39 GHz. Moreover, thanks to the rough-accurate compensation, the accuracy can be further improved to 4 MHz. Additionally, the multiple frequency identification with a resolution of 10 MHz can also be achieved based on this system.

This paper introduces a new strategy of frequency estimation for grid-tied and stand-alone mode AC/DC power converters. Frequency stabilization is required, especially when operating in stand-alone mode with a Droop Control strategy, or in hybrid mode with a Diesel generator. It is also required to reduce or increase power output along with grid frequency changes. The novel strategy utilizes a resonant filter to estimate the frequency of the voltage grid and is referenced as a resonant-frequency-estimator (RFE). A mathematical background is presented for the proposed estimator and its performance is evaluated. It is compared with three common frequency estimation algorithms: SRF-FLL, DDSRF-FLL, and DSOGI-FLL. Results are presented for three cases: frequency swing, harmonics injection, and type B short-circuit. Results are analyzed and the conclusion shows that the proposed novel strategy has comparable parameters to commonly used frequency estimation algorithms while having a loopless structure.
