Shunt Active Power Filter Based on Proportional Integral and Multi Vector Resonant Controllers for Compensating Nonlinear Loads

Abstract EN

The current tracking control strategy determines the compensation performance of shunt active power filter (SAPF).

Due to inadequate compensation of the main harmonic by traditional proportional integral (PI) control, a control algorithm based on PI and multi vector resonant (VR) controllers is proposed to control SAPF.

The mathematical model of SAPF is built, and basic principle of VR controller is introduced.

Under the synchronous reference frame, the proposed control method based on pole zero cancellation is designed, which narrows the order of the control system and improves the system dynamic response and the control accuracy.

Then the feasibility of the method is demonstrated by analyzing the closed loop frequency characteristics of the system.

Finally, the simulation and experimental results are carried out to verify the performance of the proposed method.
