this paper presents a new control method for a three-phase four-wire unified power quality conditioner (upqc) to deal with the problems of power quality under distortional and unbalanced load conditions. the proposed control approach is the combination of instantaneous power theory and synchronous reference frame (srf) theory which is optimized by using a self-tuning filter (stf) and without us...

This paper presents an analysis on the unified Power quality conditioner (UPQC) to improve the electric power quality at distribution levels. Conventional power quality mitigation equipment is a providing to be poor for an increasing number of applications. Different approaches in compensation and recent developments in fields. Single modern and very promising solution that deal with both load ...

Power quality has become an important factor in power systems. The main causes of a poor power quality are harmonic currents, poor power factor, supply-voltage variations, etc. To mitigate power quality problems, we have various equipments like active filter, passive filter, unified power flow controller and unified power quality conditioner etc. Among from them unified power quality conditione...

This paper proposes a matrix converter based unified power quality conditioner (MC–UPQC) for mitigating power quality problems. This proposed system is a combination of unified power quality conditioner and matrix converter. The UPQC is a combination of back-toback connected series and shunt active filters through a dclink. Voltage disturbances and harmonics are compensated by series active fil...
