In this paper comparison of Selective Harmonic Elimination (SHE) method with different Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technique which are used as gate pulse for firing the IGBT‟s. Higher order harmonics are easily eliminated by selecting a proper tuned value filters but lower order harmonics such as 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th are not easily eliminated. This paper includes NewtonRapson method with ran...

The ever increase of nonlinear loads in electric distribution networks causes many problems due to the high level of harmonic currents. This paper proposes a new technique for controlling a single phase shunt active power filter based on a selective compensation using the newly developed technique of harmonic control arrays. Simulation results confirm the appropriate selective harmonic compensa...

This paper describes a new strategy for pulsewidth modulation (PWM) optimized by a direct method and the application of genetic algorithms (GA) to minimize the harmonic content specifically the fifth and seventh harmonic of the total content, based on the minimum total harmonic distortion (THD). Described the development of the method, the guidelines to take into account including the algorithm...

this paper presents a new control methodology for active power filters that provide an adaptive online harmonic estimation with partial and selective harmonic reduction schemes, which has been implemented within an integrated controller. the proposed approach is to provide partial and selective reduction of those individual harmonics which exceed the recommended levels as set by regulatory bodi...

This Paper aims to extend the knowledge about the performance of different cascaded multilevel inverter through harmonic analysis. Large electric drives and utility require advanced power electronics converter to meet high power demands. As a result, multilevel power converter structure has been introduced as an alternative in high power and medium voltage situations. A multilevel converter not...
