Field Programmable Gate Array-Based Execution on a Distributed Energy Resource Supported Electrical Distribution System for Enhanced Power Quality with Optimal Active Power Flow Control

This paper explains the experimental study of a distributed energy resource (DER) integrated three-phase, three-wire electrical distribution system (EDS) under power quality (PQ) and optimal active flow control (OAPFC). In this research, back-to-back connected two-level VSI (BTB-TVSI) based static compensator (DSTATCOM) for unbalanced non-linear load is designed. The aim to provide better OAPFC in EDS with shunt compensation maintain round-the-clock supply end users. improved neural network-based adaptive least mean square (ALMS) algorithms are employed DSTATCOM. ALMS strategy realized using SPARTAN-6 field programmable gate array (FPGA) evaluation kit. research involves comparative voltage source inverter (VSI) BTB-TVSI terms their capability robustness mitigating against current disturbances, low factor (PF), poor regulation, at point common coupling (PCC), high switching stress, issues operation. results demonstrate that an controller able achieve dynamic performance lower total harmonic distortion (THD) selected/permissible limits comparison conventional VSI.
