This paper presents a new three-phase phase-locked loop (PLL) system that primarily estimates the phase angles, frequency, and magnitudes of the a three-phase input signal and also provides a filtered version of the input. It is then extended to the estimation of sequence components, their magnitudes, and phase angles. As compared with the conventional three-phase PLL, this method does not suffer from errors that are caused by signal unbalance and dc offset. It also provides estimate for several other variables which are not included in the conventional three-phase PLL. As compared with the method of using three independent single-phase enhanced PLLs, the proposed method offers a simpler structure. Moreover, the estimated frequency is more accurate and smoother because it uses the information from all three phases to estimate a single value for frequency. The paper also presents a modification that …
