This paper presents a comparative analysis between two current control strategies, constant source power and generalized Fryze current, used in Active Power Filter (APF) applications having three different modulation methods. The Hysteresis Band (HB) and first-order Delta-Sigma Modulation (DSM) as well as the second-order DSM is applied. The power section of the active power filter is viewed as...

This paper presents a fuzzy logic, PI controlled shunt active power filter used to compensate for harmonic distortion in three-phase four-wire systems. The shunt active filter employs a simple method for the calculation of the reference compensation current based on Fast Fourier Transform. The presented Shunt Active Power filter is able to operate in balanced, unbalanced and Variable load condi...

This paper describes a novel fuzzy logic controller for a three phase shunt active shunt filter for the power quality improvement. The Power Quality (PQ) problems in power distribution systems are not new but only recently the effects of these problems have gained public awareness. These non-linear loads are constructed by nonlinear devices in which the current is not proportional to the applie...

This paper proposes a new method of sliding mode base controller for shunt active power filter to compensate the harmonic currents of a load. In this controller there isn't any need to PI DC voltage controller to regulate the DC capacitor voltage of shunt active power filter. In this method, first the reference currents of shunt active power filter that should be tracked to reduce or eliminate ...
