A modified hysteresis current controller with DFCEA for current harmonic mitigation using PV-SHAPF

Abstract

ABSTRACT A Modified Hysteresis Current Controller (MHCC) with Dual Fundamental Component Extraction Algorithm (DFCEA) is presented in this paper. Its purpose is to improve the current harmonics mitigation performance of a three-level T-type inverter-based Shunt Active Power Filter (SHAPF) while operating under non-sinusoidal voltage conditions. The DFCEA is responsible for isolating the fundamental voltage and current components that are necessary for synchronizing each phase and producing the reference current. The existing dual fundamental component extraction technique is updated in order to create the optimized reference currents that are required by the proposed PV-linked T-Type inverter-based Shunt Active Power Filter (PV-SHAPF). This was done in order to meet the requirements of the PV-SHAPF. It is also anticipated that it is excellent at extracting reference currents even under situations of voltage that are not optimum. To maintain the dc-link capacitor voltage at 600 V, a control algorithm of the dc-link capacitor known as the ‘DC link voltage controller’ is used. Both control algorithms are tested in a three-phase T-Type inverter-based PV-SHAPF by simulating them in a MATLAB/Simulink environment. The performance of the MHCC-DFCEA that was designed to mitigate current harmonics was proven by the findings that were gathered.
