FUZZY Logic Based Space Vector PWM Controlled Hybrid Active Power Filter for Power Conditioning
Authors: ,
Abstract: This paper investigates the comparative analysis of a Hybrid Active Power Filter with PI based SVPWM controller and fuzzy based space vector PWM controller for mitigating the harmonics, improving the power factor and increasing the distribution power of the three phase distribution system. This paper concluded that the power conditioning by fuzzy based SVPWM hybrid active power filter is superior than PI controller based SVPWM technique. In the proposed control filters three control circuits are used such as PI control unit, fuzzy unit and SVPWM control unit. Fuzzy arithmetic‟s are used for adjusting proportional–integral coefficients timely. The desired output voltage is generated based on generated reference voltage by fuzzy based SVPWM. A MATLAB code is developed to generate the SVPWM switching pulses fed to the two-level inverter topology. Simulations are carried out using MATLAB. It is found that the %THD has been improved from 2.67 to 1.57and power factor is improved to 0.9718. The simulation results shows that the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed filter.
