Integration of Z-Source Converter in Active Harmonic Filtering

This thesis aims to design a three-phase shunt active power filter utilizing a Z-source inverter
controlled by the instantaneous reactive power theory and a PI hysteresis control algorithm.
The proposed structure is intended to mitigate harmonic components induced by nonlinear
loads. Evaluation of the proposed structure's performance under various operating conditions
with a nonlinear load was conducted. Simulation results using MATLAB/Simulink
demonstrate satisfactory performance. Additionally, the proposed structure exhibited
improved efficiency compared to conventional designs, highlighting its potential
effectiveness.
