Abstract :
Affects of noise, harmonics, and multi-frequency signal make frequency and period measurements difficult for synchronizing control events. Various methods are presented to minimize errors in period and phase measurements. Both frequency and amplitude domain approaches are analyzed. Post detection processing allows greater accuracy. Static and dynamic hystereses as well as interpolation methods of zero-crossing detection are investigated.
