Design of dIstributed Active Filters using neural network for the enhancement of power quality

This papers deals with the implementation of neural network controlled Distributed Active Filters. Distributed Active Filters introduces the concept of installing multiple active filters at different locations. Shunt active filters consists of three phase VSI and an energy source connected at DC side. Synchronous Reference Frame theory is employed for enhancement of power quality. A comparison and analysis of harmonic content of source current is done by using PI controller and Neural Network control. The new concept of proposed Distributed Active Filters are simulated using MATLAB power system Toolbox.
