A New Injection Method of Harmonic Compensation Current by Active AC Power Filter |
| Abstract |
A new injection method is proposed for active power filters to eliminate AC harmonics in ac input current of nonlinear loads such as rectifiers. By injecting the PWM current determined by the proposed injection method, all the harmonics up to order nn can be eliminated to exactly zero. This PWM injection current can be generated by sampling total harmonic wave at the rate of M and the sampled values are converted into the proposed PWM wave with N pulse-width variables and adjustable current magnitude Im. These variables are deetermined by solving a set of N nonlinear harmonic equations and the harmonic-elimination characteristics of the new injection are investigated through digital computer sinmulation. Also by comparing between the simulated results and the ones synthesized by data stored in EPROM, the possibility of the suggested injection method can be shown. |
