Practical Estimation of Accuracy in Power Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation Using Impedance Measurements

Power hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL) simulation is a technique whereby actual power hardware is interfaced to a virtual surrounding system, simulated in real-time, through PHIL interfaces making use of power amplifiers and/or actuators. While PHIL simulation affords many advantages for flexible testing of power hardware, the accuracy of the experiment can be degraded through the non-ideal aspects of ...
