A new control philosophy for power electronic converters as fictitious power compensators

Abstract

A new philosophy utilizing both thyristor-controlled reactive sources (TCR) and dynamic power filters (DPF) is proposed for applications in fictitious power compensation. The necessary network parameters for the control loops are calculated from digital time-domain, cross correlation signal processing techniques implemented with the aid of a microcomputer. Practical results that illustrate this control philosophy were obtained for a 15 kVA three-phase dynamic power filter.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
