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...

Background and Objectives: Despite superior privileges that multiphase motors offer in comparison with their three-phase counterparts, in the field of multiphase linear induction motors (LIMs) few studies have been reported until now. To combine the advantages of both multiphase motors and linear induction motors, this paper concentrates on multiphase LIM drives considering the end effects. Met...

The three-phase three-wire neutral-point-clamped shunt active power filter (NPC-SAPF), which most adopts classical closed-loop feedback control methods such as proportional-integral (PI), proportional-resonant (PR) and repetitive control, can only output 1st–25th harmonic currents with 10–20 kHz switching frequency. The reason for this is that the controller design must make a compromise betwee...

The stability performance of smart grid power systems is critical and requires special attention. Additionally, the combination Battery Energy Storage (BES) systems, Solar Photovoltaic (SPV), wind in intelligent model provides utilities with excellent efficiency dependability. However, a coordination PV other resources frequently results severe issues, such as outages or disruptions. A outage m...

In this paper, an advance repetitive control method (RCM) for fuzzy current control based grid connected inverter with a frequency adaptive capability is proposed. The main objective of the proposed scheme is to reduce total harmonic distortion (THD) such that by changing the FIR filter according to varied grid frequency and keeps the resonant frequencies fitting the grid fundamental and harmon...
