چکیده

We present a theoretical and experimental analysis of nonlinear microwave photonic filters. Far from the conventional condition of low modulation index commonly used to neglect high-order terms, we have analyzed the harmonic distortion involved in microwave photonic structures with periodic and non-periodic frequency responses. We show that it is possible to design microwave photonic filters with reduced harmonic distortion and high linearity even under large signal operation.

A graph search algorithm: Optimal placement of passive harmonic filters in a power system

The harmonic in distribution systems becomes an important problem due to an increase in nonlinear loads. This paper presents a new approach based on a graph algorithm for optimum placement of passive harmonic filters in a multi-bus system, which suffers from harmonic current sources. The objective of this paper is to minimize the network loss, the cost of the filter and the total harmonic disto...

Harmonic distortions enhance circular dichroism of dielectric single gyroids.

The departure from strict periodic order in two-phase dielectric materials can offer properties that are otherwise inaccessible to perfectly ordered photonic crystals. Herewith, we investigate the circular dichroism of the single gyroid photonic crystal in the presence of spatial distortions. FDTD simulations and microwave transmission measurements on 3D-printed replicas show that certain harmo...

Harmonic Elimination of 25 kV AC Electric Railways Utilizing a New Hybrid Filter Structure

Thyristor rectifiers are widely used in electric railways in order to control the speed. As a consequence of their usage in addition to substantial input lead current, an enormous amount of harmonics is injected into the grid. To avoid such harmonics as well as reactive power compensation, reactive power hybrid filters consisting of active and passive filters are utilized. Regarding different p...
