Abstract
A power generation system includes a generator configured to be connected to a bus. The system also includes a timing reference signal generator circuit configured to detect a timing variation of a voltage on the bus and to generate a timing reference signal from a timing reference other than the voltage on the bus in response to detection of the variation. The system further includes a generator control circuit configured to synchronize operation of the generator to the timing reference signal.
