This paper presents a control algorithm for a 3-phase 4-wire series active Power filter. This control algorithm compensates harmonics, input power factor and neutral line currents which are generated by balanced or unbalanced nonlinear loads. The advantage of this control algorithm is direct extraction of compensation voltage references. Therefore, the calculation time is shortened and the performance of the series active power filter is improved. The compensation principle of the proposed control algorithm is presented in detail. A 3KVA laboratory prototype of the three-phase four-wire series active power filter was built and experiments have been carried out. Experimental results are shown to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.

LCL filters are widely used in high-order harmonics attenuation of output currents in grid-connected inverters. However, output currents of grid-connected inverters with LCL filters can become unstable because of the resonance of the filters. Given that the characteristics of output currents in inverters mostly depend on filter performance, the exact analysis of filters by considering parasitic components is necessary for both harmonics attenuation and current control. LCL filters have three or four parasitic components: the series and/or parallel resistance of the filter capacitor and the series resistance of the two filter inductors. Most studies on LCL filters have focused on the parasitic components of the filter capacitor. Although several studies have addressed the parasitic components of the filter inductor at the inverter side, no study has yet investigated the concurrent effects of series resistance in both filter inductors in detail. This paper analyzes LCL filters by considering series resistance in both filter inductors; it proposes an active damping method based on the virtual series resistance of LCL filters. The performance of the proposed active damping is then verified through both simulation and experiment using Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulator(HILS).

최근 이동통신 시장의 급속한 증가에 따라 단말기 설계는 다표준 방식으로 발전하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 다표준 이동통신 시스템에 적용할 수 있는 주파수 가변형 능동 RC 대역통과 필터를 능동 인덕터를 사용하여 설계하였다. 기존의 대역통과 필터 설계법에서는 저지대역의 감쇠 특성과 통과대역의 주파수 선택도를 향상시키기 위하여 필터의 차수를 높게 하거나 극점 Q를 증가시키는 설계법을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 극점 Q가 높은 능동 인덕터로 대역통과 필터를 설계하여 주파수 특성이 향상되었다. 또한 설계된 대역통과 필터는 튜닝 회로를 이용하여 필터의 중심주파수와 이득을 간단히 조절할 수 있도록 제안하였다. 설계된 능동 RC 대역통과 필터 특성은 TSMC $0.18{\mu}m$ 공정 파라미터를 이용하여 해석하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, Q=20.5를 갖는 능동 인덕터를 이용한 필터는 1.86GHz 중심주파수에서 90MHz의 대역폭을 갖고, 튜닝 회로의 커패시터 값으로 중심주파수를 1.86~2.38GHz 범위까지 튜닝이 가능하여 다표준 무선통신 시스템에 적용할 수 있다.

In this paper, the control algorithm and control method for a combined system of shunt passive filter and series active filter in 3-phase 4-wire system are discussed. Moreover, the three-phase four-wire system is widely employed in distributing electric energy to several office building and manufacturing plants. In such systems, the third harmonic and its 3th harmonics are termed as triple and zero sequence components that do not cancel each other in the system neutral. Consequently, the triple harmonics add together creating a primary source of excessive neutral current. Regarding this concern, this paper presents a new control algorithm for a series hybrid active system, whereas the control approach it adopts may directly influence its compensation characteristics. Hence, the advantage of this control algorithm is direct extraction of compensation voltage reference and the required rating of the series active filter is much smaller than that of a conventional shunt active filter. Some experiments were executed and experimental results from a prototype active power filter confirm the suitability of the proposed approach.

The performance of active power filter depends on the inverter characteristic, the control method, and the accuracy of reference signal generator. The accuracy of reference generator is the most critical item to determine the performance of active power filter. This paper introduces a novel reference signal generator composed of improved adaptive predictive filter. The performance of proposed reference signal generator was verified by means of simulation with MATLAB. The simulation result confirm that the proposed reference signal generator can be utilized for the active power filter.

This paper investigates the active damping of grid-connected LCL filter resonance using high-pass filter (HPF) of the grid current. An expression for such HPF is derived in terms of the filter components. This expression facilitates a general study of the actively damped filter behavior in the discrete time domain. Limits for the HPF parameters are derived to avoid the excitation of unstable open loop poles since such excitation can reduce both the damping performance and the system robustness. Based on this study, straightforward co-design steps for the active damping loop along with the fundamental current regulator are proposed. A numerical example along with simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the theoretical analyses.

Sequential quadratic programming (SQP) has been one of the most important methods for solving nonlinear constrained optimization problems. Recently, filter method, proposed by Fletcher and Leyffer, has been extensively applied for its promising numerical results. In this paper, we present and study an active set SQP-filter algorithm for inequality constrained optimization. The active set technique reduces the size of quadratic programming (QP) subproblem. While by the filter method, there is no penalty parameter estimate. Moreover, Maratos effect can be overcome by filter technique. Global convergence property of the proposed algorithm are established under suitable conditions. Some numerical results are reported in this paper.

In this paper, we study a series active power filter to compensate current harmonics and unbalanced source voltages. Conventional control methods for compensating unbalanced source voltages use source voltages to calculate compensation voltages, and in addition use load voltages to regulate load voltages. But the proposed control method uses load voltage to compensate unbalanced source voltages and regulate load voltages. And we propose a control method to reduce current harmonics which can calculate compensation voltages directly from source currents and load voltages. By well-matched operation of two control methods, the series active power filter can compensate current harmonics, unbalanced source voltages, and regulate load voltages. We compose a combined system of the series active power filter and parallel passive filters to confirm a validity of proposed control methods. The results from experiments are presented to demonstrate effectiveness of the proposed method.

능동 소음제어 시스템에 사용되는 IIR 필터 구조는 구조적으로 안정성이 보장되어야 하며 이는 분모 전달 함수의 근이 단위원 내부에 존재하여야 한다. 따라서 이를 결정하는 제어 필터의 계수의 적절한 조정이 중요해 진다. 본 논문에서는 적응과정에서 불안정할 우려가 있는 IIR 필터 구조를 가지는 Filtered_U LMS 알고리즘에 안정화 알고리즘과 수렴속도 향상을 위한 퍼지논리를 이용한 수렴계수 계산 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘이 FIR 필터 구조 알고리즘보다 계산량이 적고 수렴특성이 우수함을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 보였다.

A parallel active power filter is designed and implemented to compensate for undesired current harmonics generated by a nonlinear load. The filter works based on PWM strategy and control signal is generated using a model predictive controller. To evaluate the achievements, a PI controller is also designed and implemented. Experimental results indicate about 50% increase in the efficiency over PI controller.
