This paper presents a new noninvasive method for calculating utility harmonic impedance at the point of common coupling (PCC). The proposed method is based on a statistical signal-processing technique, known as independent component analysis (ICA). The complex ICA technique is applied to the equations derived from Northon equivalent circuit model at the PCC in order to estimate the utility harmonic current values. Then, the estimated values of the utility harmonic current are used in an optimization problem to calculate the utility harmonic impedance. Due to considering the utility harmonic current variations in utility harmonic impedance calculation, the proposed method is relatively robust against the background harmonic fluctuations. The results obtained from computer simulation and a real case study verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
