Abstract

The paper presents a comprehensive approach to the compensation of grid current distortion in shunt active power filter systems. Four sources of current distortion are addressed: imperfect grid synchronization caused by the distortion in the grid voltages, time delays in the evaluation of grid voltages and computation of compensating currents, fluctuations of the dc bus voltage, and the distortion of inverter output voltages due to dead-time effects and related factors. The focus of the paper is on the assessment of the significance of the proposed improvements in the control algorithm for the reduction of harmonic distortion of grid currents.
