Mitigation of Line Current Harmonics Using Shunt Active Filter With Instantaneous Real and Reactive Power Theory

This paper present the mitigation of line current harmonics using control of shunt active power filter (SAPF). The three phase system is connected to nonlinear load which cause harmonics to affect the power system. The control of shunt active power filter is not only compensating harmonics but also compensate reactive power. Voltage source inverter(VSI) at using SAPF reference current control strategies; instantaneous real and reactive power theory (p-q theory), modified synchronous rotating reference frame theory(Modified d- q theory) with PI control and current control method at using hysteresis current control and SPWM controller. The different control technique of SAPF is based on reference current generation and current control method simulated by using MATLAB Simulink.
