Systems and methods herein provide for adaptive subband compression of power signals in a power system. In one embodiment, a system includes an encoder is operable to partition sensor measurements into frequency subbands (e.g., including an interharmonic subband), centered at integer multiples of the power system's fundamental frequency (e.g., 50 Hz or 60 Hz). The encoder may also be operable to detect active subbands, and to compress the at least one active subband. The system also includes a data concentrator operable to transmit the at least one compressed subband to a processor for analysis. The system also includes a decoder at a processing location (a substation, a concentrator, or the control center) operable to parse the compressed waveforms into subbands, to interpolate and decompress at least one compressed subband, and to synthesize the decompressed subbands as an approximation of the original waveform (e.g., subject to reconstruction error requirements).
