A growth of computational intelligence techniques is the motivation to propose an intelligent controller in this chapter to minimize the harmonics in a more electric aircraft systems due to the presence of nonlinear load applied in aircraft system. Conventional PI controller is implemented in the system and the compensated reference current is generated by sinusoidal current control theory. Shunt active power filter is mainly used to minimize the harmonics in the aircraft system feeding the nonlinear load. The proposed system uses conventional SCC- and ANFIS-based controller and the results are compared. The simulation result of total harmonic distortion (THD) is demonstrated through MATLAB/SIMULINK.

<span lang="EN-US">Multilevel inverter (MLI) becomes more significant in Active Power Filter (APF) application due to capability to its produce low harmonic output current in which at the same time improving performance of APF. Among the topologies of MLI, Cascaded H-Bridge (CHB) is the most popular topology with less power devices requirement and simple design. MLI CHB is also capable to produce possible output voltage at twice of the number of DC source which in this case of APF is the best suited topology to replace with the conventional six -step inverter. This paper presents the performance of three- phase three-wire CHB MLI used in Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) based on Direct Current Control (DCC) and Indirect Current Control (ICC) schemes. Both schemes are developed and verified in MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results show that both current control algorithms are capable to mitigate load current with Total Harmonic Distortion below than the permissible value based on IEEE 519 standard.</span>

This paper presents a novel harmonic identification algorithm of shunt active power filter for balanced and unbalanced three-phase systems based on the instantaneous power theory called instantaneous power theory with Fourier. Moreover, the optimal design of predictive current controller using an artificial intelligence technique called adaptive Tabu search is also proposed in the paper. These enhancements of the identification and current control parts are the aim of the good performance for shunt active power filter. The good results for harmonic mitigation using the proposed ideas in the paper are confirmed by the intensive simulation using SPS in SIMULINK. The simulation results show that the enhanced shunt active power filter can provide the minimum %THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) of source currents and unity power factor after compensation. In addition, the %THD also follows the IEEE Std.519-1992.

This paper presents the use of a three-phase four-wire shunt active power filter to improve the power quality in the Department of Industrial Electronics of a large enterprise from Romania. The specificity is given by the predominant existence of single-phase consumers (such as personal computers, printers, lighting and AC equipment). In order to identify the power quality indicators and ways to improve them, an A-class analyzer was used to record the electrical quantities and energy parameters in the point of common coupling (PCC) with the nonlinear loads for 27 h. The analysis shows that, in order to improve the power quality in PCC, three goals must be achieved: the compensation of the distortion power, the compensation of the reactive power and the compensation of the load unbalance. By using the conceived three-leg shunt active power filter, controlled through the indirect current control method in an original variant, the power quality at the supply side is very much improved. In the proposed control algorithm, the prescribed active current is obtained as a sum of the loss current provided by the DC voltage and the equivalent active current of the unbalanced load. The performance associated with each objective of the compensation is presented and analyzed. The results show that all the power quality indicators meet the specific standards and regulations and prove the validity of the proposed solution.

<span>This paper presents a novel shunt active power filter (SAPF). The power converter that is used in this SAPF is constructed from a four-leg asymmetric multi-level cascaded H-bridge (CHB) inverter that is fed from a photovoltaic source. A three-dimensional space vector modulation (3D-SVPWM) technique is adopted in this work. The multi-level inverter can generate 27-level output with harmonic content is almost zero. In addition to the capability to inject reactive power and mitigating the harmonics, the proposed SAPF has also, the ability to inject real power as it is fed from a PV source. Moreover, it has a fault-tolerant capability that makes the SAPF maintaining its operation under a loss of one leg of the multi-level inverter due to an open-circuit fault without any degradation in the performance. The proposed SAPF is designed and simulated in MATLAB SIMULINK using a single nonlinear load and the results have shown a significant reduction in total harmonics distortion (THD) of the source current under the normal operating condition and post a failure in one phase of the SAPF. Also, similar results are obtained when IEEE 15 bus network is used.</span>
