Abstract—This paper provides the modelling and control aspects of shunt active power filter
based on interleaved buck converter. The shunt active power filter is used for mitigation of
adverse effect of harmonics in an AC distribution network. Interleaved buck converter
topology is used because it mitigates the shoot-through effect of classical inverter. P-Q
control technique is used to provide compensating current. Specifically, the control scheme
employs a dual loop design, with voltage mode control controlling the dc-link voltage control
as the first loop. The current loop takes into account the load current and employs various
transformations, such as park transformation and inverse park transformation, to accomplish
this. The current is controlled through the use of hysteresis current control. PWM is used to
provide switching pulses through the gate driver, which is a digital signal processor. It is
possible to find the source voltage, load current, and source current of a non-ideal voltage
source. As far as imbalanced nonlinear load is concerned, the voltage at the source, the
current drawn by the load, and the current flowing through the source has been given.

I. INTRODUCTION
With rampant use of nonlinear loads such as motor loads, drive, and UPS the power quality
of an AC transmission line deteriorates. Shunt active power filter is considered as an ideal
technology to mitigate the problems regarding power quality in the transmission line. Shunt
active power filter is one of the matured technologies which provides harmonic current
compensation, reactive power compensation as well as neutral current compensation in an
AC distribution network. A detailed summary of voltage and current harmonics in a utility
AC distribution system has been reported in [1]. Harmonics is one of the unwanted entities
which degrades the performance of the loads as well as decreases the efficiency of the
system. The summary of the power quality standards has been discussed in [2]. There are
different control techniques for shunt active power filter i.e. linear controller as well as
nonlinear controller [3]. Adaptive controller is a form of nonlinear controller for shunt active
power filter which is widely used for its better performance [4]. Basically, a voltage source
inverter is connected in active power filter which may encounter shoot-through effect which
can be eliminated by change of topologies.
To overcome the effect of dead band, a 3-phase interleaved buck converter
is used as topology and p-q control technique is used for the control purpose. The hybrid
control scheme for single-phase shunt active power filter based on interleaved buck converter
has been discussed in [5]. The hybrid controller for fuzzy based control scheme for shunt
active power filter using interleaved buck converter has been discussed in [6]. Interleaved
buck converter with PV system has been discussed in [7]. Optimal control scheme for shunt
active power filter using interleaved buck converter has been discussed in [8]. This paper
provides modelling and control scheme of active power filter with interleaved buck
converter.

II. PROBLEM FORMULATION


Figure 1 provides the schematic diagram of active power filter with interleaved buck
converter. 3-phase AC source is connected with a nonlinear load. Interleaved buck converter
acts as an active power filter.

Figure 2 provides the control scheme for active power filter with interleaved buck converter.
The control scheme is a dual loop control where voltage mode control which controls the dc-
link voltage control. The current loop considers the load current and uses different
transformation such as park transformation and inverse park transformation. Hysteresis
current control is used to control the current. PWM is used for providing switching pulses via
the gate driver.

III. SIMULATION RESULTS


Figure 3 provides the simulation results in two different cases i.e. (a) non-ideal voltage source
and (b) Unbalanced nonlinear load.
In the case of non-ideal voltage source, the source voltage, load current and source current has
been provided. In the case of unbalanced nonlinear load, the source voltage, load current and
source current has been provided.

IV. CONCLUSION
This paper provides a systematic analysis and simulation results for shunt active power filter
using interleaved buck converter. The interleaved buck converter removes the dead band
effect which is predominant in other active power filter converter. P-q control theory has
been used to control the interleaved buck converter. Simulation results have been provided to
validate the theoretical aspects. There was discussion of the hybrid one-phase controlling
system for the shunt active buck converter filter. The hybrid controller for the fuzzy control
scheme for shunting active-power filters with a buck converter was discussed. The PV
System Buck Converter Interleaved has been discussed. For shunt active buck converter
power filters, optimum control method was discussed. In order to achieve this the current
loop takes the load current into account and uses several transformations like park
transformation and reverse park transformation. The current is controlled by using the current
control of hysteresis. PWM serves as a digital signal processor to deliver the pulses of
switching via the port driver.
