-Selective harmonic elimination/control (SHE) has been a widely researched alternative to traditional pulse-width modulation technique. It has been a research topic since the early 1960’s and developed into a mature form during the 1970’s. This report will discuss the generalized techniques of selective harmonic elimination developed in [1] during 1973. And work focus on simulating the results ...

In this study, an enhanced SPWM modulation scheme is developed in order to minimize total harmonic ratio (THD) by eliminating the side band harmonics that are not paid attention in regular modulation sc...

This paper describes a new strategy for pulsewidth modulation (PWM) optimized by a direct method and the application of genetic algorithms (GA) to minimize the harmonic content specifically the fifth and seventh harmonic of the total content, based on the minimum total harmonic distortion (THD). Described the development of the method, the guidelines to take into account including the algorithm...

Thyristor rectifiers are widely used in electric railways in order to control the speed. As a consequence of their usage in addition to substantial input lead current, an enormous amount of harmonics is injected into the grid. To avoid such harmonics as well as reactive power compensation, reactive power hybrid filters consisting of active and passive filters are utilized. Regarding different p...

Harmonic Elimination Strategy (HES) has been a widely researched alternative to traditional PWM techniques. This paper presents the harmonic elimination strategy of a Uniform Step Asymmetrical Multilevel Inverter (USAMI) using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) which eliminates specified higher order harmonics while maintaining the required fundamental voltage. This method can be applied to USAM...

This paper deals with the elimination of harmonics at PCC in the presence of non-linear type of loads. Introduction of five-level DSTATCOM at PCC injects compensating currents for the minimization of harmonic content in the source currents. Non-linear loads when connected to the system draw non-linear components of current leaving undesired harmonics at the source side. DSTATCOM when connected ...

In this paper comparison of Selective Harmonic Elimination (SHE) method with different Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technique which are used as gate pulse for firing the IGBT‟s. Higher order harmonics are easily eliminated by selecting a proper tuned value filters but lower order harmonics such as 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th are not easily eliminated. This paper includes NewtonRapson method with ran...

Regular-sampled PWM techniques have been developed to reproduce the harmonic-elimination and harmonic minimization PWM characteristics. These new regular-sampled PWM control strategies significantly reduce the computational requirements for real-time microprocessor-based PWM implementation. This results in simplied and more efficient microprocessor softwarehardware requirements, leading to real...
