Generator control using transient condition resilient ripple blender

A method, comprising:

• providing an output of a polyphase generator to a polyphase bridge rectifier;
• outputting from the polyphase bridge rectifier a positive rectified ripple signal with respect to a ground voltage and a negative rectified ripple signal with respect to the ground voltage;
• summing the positive rectified ripple signal and the negative rectified ripple signal to produce a total ripple signal;
• generating a field control signal based on summing the total ripple signal and a reference voltage;
• and
• regulating the output of the polyphase generator with the field control signal.

A system, comprising:

• a polyphase generator;
• a polyphase bridge rectifier electrically coupled to an output of the polyphase generator, wherein the polyphase bridge rectifier is configured to output a positive rectified ripple signal with respect to a ground voltage and a negative rectified ripple signal with respect to the ground voltage;
• a first conditioning filter configured to filter the positive rectified ripple signal to output a filtered positive rectified ripple signal;
• a second conditioning filter configured to filter the negative rectified ripple signal to output a filtered negative rectified ripple signal, wherein the filtered positive rectified ripple signal and the filtered negative rectified ripple signal are summed to output a total ripple signal;
• and
• a regulator configured to control the output of the polyphase generator with a field control signal based on summing of the total ripple signal and a reference voltage.
