Abstract
In this research paper, the shunt active filter (SHAF) is used to improve the power quality of electrical network by mitigating the harmonics with the help of different control strategies (p-q control strategy, Id-Iq control strategy, PHC control strategy) for three phase three wire system. It is quite difficult to optimize the performance of power system networks using conventional methods, because of complex nature of the systems that are highly non-linear and non-stationary. Three phase reference current waveforms generated by the proposed schemes are tracked by three phase voltage source converter in a hysteresis band control scheme. The performance of proposed control strategies has been evaluated in terms of harmonic mitigation and DC link voltage regulation under various source voltage conditions. The proposed SHAF with different control strategies is able to eliminate uncertainty in the system and SHAF gains outstanding compensation abilities. The detailed simulation results using MATLAB/Simulink software are presented to support the feasibility of the proposed control strategy.
