A novel control method is proposed for the three-phase four-wire four-leg active power filter (APF) to realize the accurate and real-time compensation of harmonic of power system, which combines space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) with triangle modulation strategy. Firstly, the basic principle of the APF is briefly described. Then the harmonic and reactive currents are derived by the instantaneous reactive power theory. Finally simulation and experiment are built to verify the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method. The simulation results show that the response time for compensation is about 0.025 sec and the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the source current of phaseAis reduced from 33.38% before compensation to 3.05% with APF.

The boost feature that characterizes Z-source and quasi-Z-source converters is usually achieved by means of a proper insertion of short-circuit states in the full DC-link. In this work, a novel pulse width modulation carrier-based strategy for a three-phase, three-level T-type, quasi-Z-source inverter is introduced, based on the addition of alternate short-circuits in the two halves of the DC-link bus. This technique achieves better performance, less electromagnetic interference, and lower harmonic distortion of the output line-to-line voltage compared to the traditional methods based on the full DC-link shoot-through. At the same time, generating the switching states is to easy implement. The proposed strategy permits the use of electronic devices with lower blocking voltage capability, thus improving converter reliability, size, and cost. The new method may be implemented in another multilevel inverter with an impedance-source network as well. A comprehensive simulation study is performed in order to validate the adopted method, with different inverter input voltages, which is taken as representative of a photovoltaic array. Comparisons are conducted with conventional strategy insertions using the same topology in order to show the improvements achieved.

The main goal of this paper is to increase the active/reactive power extracted from variable-speed dual-rotor wind power (DRWP) based on doubly-fed induction generators (DFIG) by optimizing its operation using advanced direct vector control. First, the dynamic modeling of different parts of the system is introduced. The DFIG is modeled in the Park reference system. After that, the control techniques are introduced in detail. Direct vector command (DVC) with four-level fuzzy pulse width modulation (FPWM) is used to control the rotor current, thereby controlling the reactive power and active power of the generator. Then, use the neural network design to replace the traditional proportional-integral (PI) controller. Finally, the Matlab/Simulink software is used for simulation to prove the effectiveness of the command strategy using 1.5 MW DRWP. The results show good performance in terms of response time, stability, and precision in following the reference under variable wind speed conditions. In addition, the total harmonic distortion (THD) value of stator current is about 0.13%, being a bit less than other THD values reported in the literature.

In order to restrain harmonic pollution of power grid, the structure and control strategy of APF was researched. The structural parameters and method of direct current control of the most widely used APF with three-phase VSI was discussed. Decoupling control of active and reactive current on the dq plane was realized by dq transforming. Harmonic of load current was detected by Ip-Iq algorithm based on the instantaneous reactive power theory. Double closed-loop control was applied and PWM drive signals of IGBT were got through comparison of triangle wave and modulation wave. The simulation results demonstrate that the kind of control method make APF good dynamic response and static compensation.

The wide spread use of power electronics equipments in modern electrical systems, has became a major concern due to the adverse effects of harmonics on all the sensitive equipments. This paper presents the implementation of shunt active power filter (SAPF) using source voltage and source current detection. The control and implementation of SAPF is being done by instantaneous active and reactive power, PQ theory for the extraction of harmonics from the fundamental and for the generation of Pulses for the voltage source inverter (VSI), space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) is used. The harmonics present in the system are computed and the controller generates PWM signals to inject the compensating harmonic current back into the line to cancel the harmonic components in the distorted line. The performance of proposed topology is first examined by MATLAB-SIMLINK-based simulation and the prototype hardware has been developed using DSP TMS320F28027 processor and the results were verified. The Total harmonic distortion (THD) is below the specified limits.

An improved control strategy for three-phase grid-connected inverters with space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) is proposed. When the grid current contains harmonics, the d-and q-axes grid currents is interacted in the traditional control method, and the waveform quality of the grid current is poor. As the reference output voltage cannot directly reflect the change of the reference grid current with the traditional control strategy, the dynamic response of the grid-connected inverter is slow. In order to solve the aforementioned problems, the d-and q-axes grid currents in the decoupled components of the grid current controller are substituted by the d-and q-axes reference grid currents, respectively. The operating principles of the traditional and proposed control methods are illustrated. Experimental results show that the grid-connected inverter with the improved control strategy has high waveform quality of the grid current and fast dynamic response.

This paper deals with the theoretical development, analysis, and simulation of the new topology of three-phase NPC (Neural Point Clamped) converter. The proposed 6-kW three-phase converter is connected to a three-phase electrical network and due to its bidirectional characteristics can either send energy to the grid or receive it from the grid. The classic strategy of vectorial control at the DQ synchronous reference frame, along with a simple algorithm for Unit Vector Generation (UVG), have been employed to control the line currents in the grid and the DC-bus voltage, thus substituting the PLL (Phase Locked Loop). A PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) strategy is presented in the form of an analog circuit and used for switching the semiconductors in the converter. The obtained results were verified using Matlab/Simulink software. The proposed converter has five voltage levels at the output for each phase and proven more advantageous than the conventional NPC. In addition, it was obtained a better harmonic content in the grid currents because there is very low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) both when acting as a rectifier and as an inverter.

<p><span>The study made in this paper concerns the use of the voltage-oriented control (VOC) of three-phase pulse width modulation (PWM) rectifier with constant switching frequency. This control method, called voltage-oriented controlwith space vector modulation (VOC-SVM). The proposed control scheme has been founded on the transformation between stationary (α-β) and and synchronously rotating (d-q) coordinate system, it is based on two cascaded control loops so that a fast inner loop controls the grid current and an external loop DC-link voltage, while the DC-bus voltage is maintained at the desired level and ansured the unity power factor operation. So, the stable state performance and robustness against the load’s disturbance of PWM rectifiers are boths improved. The proposed scheme has been implemented and simulated in MATLAB/Simulink environment. The control system of the VOC-SVM strategy has been built based on dSPACE system with DS1104 controller board. The results obtained show the validity of the model and its control method. Compared with the conventional SPWM method, the VOC-SVM ensures high performance and fast transient response.</span></p>

<span>A hybrid DC/DC/AC converter connected to the grid without a three-phase transformer is controlled. The decentralized control method is applied to the hybrid DC-DC converter such that the maximum power of PV flows to the grid side. This controller must charge and discharge the battery at the proper time. It must also regulate DC-link voltage. An additional advantage of the proposed control is that the three-phase inverter does not need a separate controller such as PWM and SPWM. A simple technique is used for creating the desired phase shift in the three-phase inverter, which makes the active and reactive power of the inverter controllable. A new configuration is also proposed to transmit and manage the generation power of PV. In this<br />scheme, the battery and fuel cell are employed as an auxiliary source to manage the generation power of PV. Finally, a real-time simulation is performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed controller and system by considering the real characteristics of PV and FC.</span>
