this paper presents a comparative analysis between two current control strategies, constant source power and generalized fryze current, used in active power filter (apf) applications having three different modulation methods. the hysteresis band (hb) and first-order delta-sigma modulation (dsm) as well as the second-order dsm is applied. the power section of the active power filter is viewed as...

In this paper, two algorithms have been developed for allocation and size determination of Active Power Filters (APF) in power systems. In the first algorithm, the objective is to minimize harmonic voltage distortion. The objective in the second algorithm is to minimize the new APF injection currents while satisfying harmonic standards. Genetic algorithm is proposed for these two optimization p...

With the dramatic growth of nonlinear loads, it is desired to improve active filters performance and enhance their capacity. One of the most favorable methods is applying distributed active filter system (DAFS) in which leads to minimizing the cost, weight & size .The main purpose of this paper is to determine the locations and sizes of distributed active filter system (DAFS) With emphasis on r...

This paper deals with three methods of determination of reference current for control of single-phase active filters. All this methods are based on the idea that an ordinary single-phase (system) quantity can be complemented by a fictitious second phase so that both of them will create an orthogonal and orthonormal system.
