New Hysteresis Control Block for Shunt Active Power Filter for Harmonics Compensation Generated by CFLs with PQ Theory

This paper proposes a New Modulation Hysteresis Control block for a three phase four wire Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) for currents harmonics compensation generated by Compact Fluorescents Lamps (CFLs). This study employs the PQ power control strategy. The performance of the SAPF is evaluated under both simple hysteresis controller and under the new modulation hysteresis controller conditions using the Matlab/Simulink platform. The findings simulation results demonstrate that the proposed new technique can improve the power quality of the main, and the total harmonic distortion (THD) optimization, which also confirms the effectiveness of the approach.
