Abstract: Generalized adaptive feedforward cancellation with a reference sensor is considered to specifically suppress second harmonic torque oscillations with an ac fed propulsion system for an electric train. A single complex-valued design parameter is tracked through gradient-type adaptation. Both Cartesian and polar parameter representations are considered, resulting in quite varying convergence properties. Three different adaptation algorithms are proposed and evaluated using power lab experiments. At fixed operating conditions, a Cartesian form parameter adaptation is shown to be more robust to the choice of initial conditions, whereas a polar form representation shows better performance when covering a wide range of operating points.
