Analysis of control strategy and dimensioning of Hybrid Active power filter with reduced inverter power rating

This work analyzes the compensation of harmonic currents through a Hybrid Filter. The Hybrid Filter consists of an active power filter connected in parallel with the inductor of a shunt passive tuned filter, resulting a lower voltage and current stress over the active filter. The paper investigates the behavior of an open loop control strategy, and discusses the dimensioning of the power converter. Simulation results verify the system operation.
