Harmonic Mitigation in Shunt Active Power Filter Regulation Approaches with Synchronous Reference Frame: An Extensive Analysis
Abstract: The Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) is discussed in this work as a means of removing line-side current harmonics. The Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) topology serves as the foundation for the Active Power Filter. It resolves the power system's harmonic current issue. Additionally, it balances the load on three phases and compensates for reactive power (if load is unbalanced). After measuring load current, it switches to the dq0 coordinate system. …

Adaptive Hysteresis Band Current Controller for the Shunt Active Power Filter Using the d-q0 Reference Frame Theory
Abstract: Recent wide spread applications of power electronic equipment has caused an increase of the harmonic disturbances in the power systems. The nonlinear loads draw harmonic and reactive power components of current from AC mains. Here an adaptive hysteresis band current controlled shunt active power filter is presented to eliminate harmonics and to compensate the reactive power of three-phase rectifier. This current controller changes the hysteresis bandwidth according to modulation frequency, …
