Simulation of Fuzzy Logic Based Shunt Hybrid Active Filter for Power Quality Improvement

This paper deals with the implementation of fuzzy logic based Shunt Hybrid Active Filter (SHAF) with non-linear load to minimize the source current harmonics and provide reactive power compensation. Comparison with Proportional Integral (PI) based SHAF is also analyzed. Shunt Hybrid Active Filter is constituted by Active Filter connected in shunt and shunt connected three phase single tuned LC filter for 5th harmonic frequency with rectifier load. The Active Filtering System is based on Synchronous Reference Frame. The proposed fuzzy logic based control strategy improves active filter operation and reduces the selective harmonic contents. The control strategies are demonstrated through MATLAB Simulated Environment.
