Abstract
Herein, we propose a control method for a single-phase active filter composed of a universal smart power module (USPM). The USPM is a modularization technology concept that comprises various power conversion systems. Depending on the application, the USPM is a full-bridge inverter with a wideband controller and filter, and the power converter is constructed using several USPMs. In this study, the target system was an active filter composed of modules connected in series or parallel to accommodate arbitrary voltage and current capacitances. The proposed method solves the communication delays between the master and slave controllers owing to the distributed control in wireless communications and the interference problem caused by multiple USPM connections. The experimental results of the steady-state response showed that despite the communication delays, the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the input current was improved by up to 63.0%, and the power factor was 0.997. Moreover, load fluctuation experiments confirmed that the system transitioned to a steady -state and operated stably by updating the command value of the slave controller for the first time after the load fluctuation. The harmonic current elimination can be realized as an active filter, and the effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
