ABSTRACT

In this paper presents a fast new PI controlled DSTATCOM used to compensate for harmonic distortion in three-
phase system. The DSTATCOM employs a simple

Method for the calculation of the reference compensation current based. The presented DSTATCOM is able to
operate in balanced, unbalanced and Variable load conditions. Classic filters may not have satisfactory performance in fast
varying conditions. But fast PI active power filter gives better results for harmonic minimization, reactive power
compensation and power factor improvement. The proposed fast PI- DSTATCOM maintains the THD well within IEEE-
519 standards.

INTRODUCTION

In recent years, power quality distortion has become serious problem in electrical power systems due to the
increase of nonlinear loads drawing non sinusoidal currents Active filters & DSTATCOM have been widely used for
harmonic mitigations well as reactive power compensation, load balancing, voltage regulation, and voltage flicker
compensation in three-phase systems with nonlinear loads a high level of harmonic currents. Unbalanced loads also results
in further declination of the Supply quality. Various harmonic mitigation techniques have been proposed to reduce the
effect of harmonics. These techniques include phase multiplication, passive filters, active power filters (APFs), and
harmonic injection. One of the most popular APFs is the shunt active power filters & DSTATCOM. It is mainly a current
source, Connected in parallel with the non-linear loads. Conventionally, a shunt APF is controlled in such a way as to
inject harmonic and reactive compensation currents based on calculated reference currents. The injected currents are meant
to cancel the harmonic and reactive currents drawn by the nonlinear loads In a modern electrical distribution system, there
has been a sudden increase of nonlinear loads, such as power supplies, rectifier equipment, domestic appliances, and
adjustable speed drives (ASD), etc. As the number of these loads increased, harmonics currents generated by these loads
may become very significant. These harmonics can lead to a variety of different power system problems including the
distorted voltage waveforms, equipment overheating, malfunction in system protection, excessive neutral currents, light
flicker, inaccurate power flow metering, etc. They also reduce efficiency by drawing reactive current component from the
distribution network. In order to overcome these problems, active power filters (APFs) &DSTATCOM have been
developed. The voltage-source inverter (VSI)-based shunt active power filter & DSTATCOM have been used in recent
years and recognized as a viable solution of the control scheme, in which the required compensating currents are
172 D. Mohan Reddy & T. Gowrimanohar

determined by sensing line currents only, which is simple and easy to implement. The scheme uses a conventional
proportional plus integral (PI) controller for the generation of a reference current. The shunt-connected custom power
devices, called the APF & DSTATCOM, injects current at the point of common coupling (PCC) so that harmonic filtering,
power factor correction, and load balancing can be achieved. The APF consists of a current-controlled voltage-source
inverter (VSI) which injects current at the PCC through the interface inductor. The operation of VSI is supported by a dc
storage capacitor with proper dc voltage across it. One important aspect of the compensation is the extraction of reference
currents. Various control algorithms are available in literature [7][9] to compute the reference compensator currents.
However, instantaneous symmetrical component theory [9] is preferred. Based on this algorithm, the compensator
reference currents are given as follows:

and (1)

where = tan / 3, and is the desired phase angle between the supply voltages and compensated source
currents in the respective phases. The term P lavg is the dc or average value of the load power. The term P dc accounts for the
losses in the VSI without any dc loads in its dc link. To generate P dc, a suitable closed-loop dc-link voltage controller
should be used, which will regulate the dc voltage to the reference value. The transient performance of the compensator is
decided by the computation time of average load power and losses in the compensator. In most APF applications, losses in
the VSI are a fraction of the average load power. Therefore, the transient performance of the compensator mostly depends
on the computation of Plavg. In this paper, Plavg is computed by using a moving average filter (MAF) to ensure fast dynamic
response.

The settling time of the MAF is a half-cycle period in case of odd harmonics and one cycle period in case of even
harmonics presence in voltages and currents. Although the computation of Pdc is generally slow and updated once or twice
in a cycle, being a small value compared P lavg to, it does not play a significant role in transient performance of the
compensator. In some applications, such as the telecommunications industry uses several parallel-connected switch-mode
rectifiers to support dc bus voltage. Such an arrangement draws nonlinear load currents from the utility. This causes poor
power factor and, hence, more losses and less efficiency. Clearly, there are PQ issues, such as unbalance, poor power
factor, and harmonics produced by telecom equipment in power distribution networks. Therefore, the functionalities of the
conventional APF should be increased to mitigate the aforementioned PQ problems and to supply the dc loads from its dc
link as well. The load sharing by the ac and dc bus depends upon the design and the rating of the VSI. Here, there are two
important issues.

The first one is the regulation of the dc-link voltage within prescribed limits under transient load conditions. The
second one is the settling time of the dclink voltage controller. Conventionally, a PI controller is used to maintain the dc-
link voltage. It uses the deviation of the capacitor voltage from its reference value as its input. However, the transient
response of the conventional dc-link voltage controllers is slow, especially in applications where the load changes rapidly.
Some work related to dc-link voltage controllers and their stability is reported in (2-5).

In this paper, a fast-acting dc-link voltage controller based on the dc-link capacitor energy is proposed. The
detailed modeling and simulation verifications are carried out by using MATLAB environment to prove the efficacy of this
fast-acting dc-link voltage controller. There is no systematic procedure to design the gains of the conventional PI controller

used to regulate the dc-link voltage of the APF. But some, mathematical equations are given to design the gains of the
conventional controller based on the fast-acting dc-link voltage controllers to achieve similar fast transient response.

CONTROL METHOD: REFERENCE FRAME POWER THEORY

The proposed reference frame-power (p) theory derives from the conventional p-q theory or reference frame-
power theory concept and uses simple algebraic calculations. It operates in steady-state or transient as well as for generic
voltage and current power systems that allowing to control the active power filters in real-time. The active filter should
supply the oscillating portion of the instantaneous active current of the load and hence makes source current sinusoidal.

Figure 2: - Coordinates Transformation

The p-q theory performs a Clarke transformation of a stationary system of coordinates a b c to an orthogonal

reference system of coordinates . In a b c coordinates axes are fixed on the same plane, apart from each other by 1200
that as shown in Figure 2. The instantaneous space vectors voltage and current Va , ia are set on the a-axis, Vb , ib are on

the b axis, and Vc , ic are on the c axis. These space vectors are easily transformed into coordinates. The
instantaneous source voltages vsa, vsb, vsc are transformed into the coordinates voltage V, V by Clarke

transformation as follows:

(2)

Similarly, the instantaneous source current isa, isb, isc also transformed into the coordinates current i i
by Clarke transformation that is given as:

(3)

Where and axes are the orthogonal coordinates. They V, iare on the -axis, and V iare on the -axis.

Real-Power (P) Calculation

The orthogonal coordinates of voltage and current v,iare on the -axis and v, iare on the-axis. Let the
instantaneous real-power calculated from the -axis and - axis of the current and voltage respectively. These are given
by the conventional definition of real-power as :

(4)

This instantaneous real-power Pac is passed to first order Butterworth design based 50 Hz low pass filter (LPF)
for eliminating the higher order components; it allows the fundamental component only. These LPF indicates ac
components of the real-power losses and its denoted as Pac.

The DC power loss is calculated from the comparison of the dc-bus capacitor voltage of the cascaded inverter and
desired reference voltage. The proportional and integral gains (PI Controller) are determining the dynamic response and
settling time of the dc-bus capacitor voltage. The DC component power losses can be written as

(5)

The instantaneous real-power (P) is calculated from the AC component of the real-power loss Pac and the DC
power loss PDC(Loss) ) ; it can be defined as follows:

(6)

The instantaneous current on the coordinates of Ic and ic are divided into two kinds of instantaneous
current components; first is real-power losses and second is reactive power losses, but this proposed controller computes
only the real-power losses.

So the coordinate currents ic, ic are calculated from the v, vvoltages with instantaneous real power P
only and the reactive power q is assumed to be zero. This approach reduces the calculations and shows better performance

than the conventional methods. The coordinate currents can be calculated as

(7)

From this equation, we can calculate the orthogonal coordinates active-power current. The axis of the
instantaneous active current is written as:

(8)

Similarly, the -axis of the instantaneous active current is written as:

(9)

Let the instantaneous powers p(t) in the -axis and the - axis is represented as Pand Prespectively. They
are given by the definition of real-power as follows:

(10)

From this equation (10), substitute the orthogonal coordinates -axis active power (8) and - axis active power
(9); we can calculate the real-power p(t) as follows

(11)

The AC and DC component of the instantaneous power p(t) is related to the harmonics currents. The
instantaneous real power generates the reference currents required to compensate the distorted line current harmonics and
reactive power.

DC-LINK VOLTAGE CONTROLLERS

The sudden removal of load would result in an increase in the dc-link voltage above the reference value, whereas
a sudden increase in load would reduce the dc-link voltage below its reference value. As mentioned before, the source
supplies an unbalanced nonlinear ac load directly and a dc load through the dc link of the APF, as shown in Figure 1. Due
to transients on the load side, the dc bus voltage is significantly affected. To regulate this dc-link voltage, closed-loop
controllers are used. The proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control provides a generic and efficient solution to many
control problems. The control signal from PID controller to regulate dc link voltage is expressed as

Uc = Kp (Vdc ref Vdc) + (12)

In (12), Kp, Ki and Kd are proportional, integral, and derivative gains of the PID controller, respectively. The
proportional term provides overall control action proportional to the error signal. An increase in proportional controller
176 D. Mohan Reddy & T. Gowrimanohar

gain (Kp) reduces rise time and steady-state error but increases the overshoot and settling time. An increase in integral gain
(Ki) reduces steady state error but increases overshoot and settling time. Increasing derivative gain (Kd) will lead to
improved stability. However, practitioners have often found that the derivative term can behave against anticipatory action
in case of transport delay. A cumbersome trial-and-error method to tune its parameters made many practitioners switch off
or even exclude the derivative term [8], [9]. Therefore, the description of conventional and the proposed fast-acting dc-link
voltage controllers using PI controllers are given in the following subsections.

Conventional DC-Link Voltage Controller

The conventional PI controller used for maintaining the dc-link voltage is shown in Figure 3. To maintain the dc-
link voltage at the reference value, the dc-link capacitor needs a certain amount of real power, which is proportional to the
difference between the actual and reference voltages. The power required by the capacitor can be expressed as follows:

Pdc = Kp (Vdc ref Vdc) + (13)

Figure 3: Schematic Diagram of the Conventional Dc-Link Voltage Controller

Figure 4: Schematic Diagram of the Fast-Acting Dc-Link Voltage Controller

The dc-link capacitor has slow dynamics compared to the compensator, since the capacitor voltage is sampled at
every zero crossing of phase supply voltage. The sampling can also be performed at a quarter cycles depending upon the
symmetry of the dc-link voltage waveform. The drawback of this conventional controller is that its transient response is
slow, especially for fast-changing loads. Also, the design of PI controller parameters is quite difficult for a complex system
and, hence, these parameters are chosen by trial and error. Moreover, the dynamic response during the transients is totally
dependent on the values of Kp, and Ki, when Pdc is comparable to Plavg.

Fast-Acting DC Link Voltage Controller

To overcome the disadvantages of the aforementioned controller, an energy-based dc-link voltage controller is
proposed. The energy required by the dc-link capacitor (Wdc) to charge from actual voltage (Vdc) to the reference value
(Vdc ref) can be computed as

Wdc = Cdc ( (14)

In general, the dc-link capacitor voltage has ripples with double frequency, that of the supply frequency. The dc
power (Pdc) required by the dc-link capacitor is given as:

(15)

Loading Conditions Using Instantaneous Synchronous Reference Theory

where Tc is the ripple period of the dc-link capacitor voltage. However, due to the lack of integral term, there is a
steady-state error while compensating the combined ac and dc loads. This is eliminated by including an integral term. The
input to this controller is the error between the squares of reference and the actual capacitor voltages. This controller is
shown in Figure 4 and the total dc power required by the dc-link capacitor is computed as follows:

Pdc = Kpe ( (16)

The coefficients Kpe and Kie are the proportional and integral gains of the proposed energy-based dc-link voltage
controller. As an energy-based controller, it gives fast response compared to the conventional PI controller. Thus, it can be
called a fast acting dc-link voltage controller. The ease in the calculation of the proportional and integral gains is an
additional advantage. The value of the proportional controller gain (K pe) can be given as

Kpe = Cdc / 2Tc (17)

For example, if the value of dc-link capacitor is 2200 F and the capacitor voltage ripple period as 0.01 s, then K pe
is computed as 0.11 by using (17). The selection of K ie depends upon the tradeoff between the transient response and
overshoot in the compensated source current. Once this proportional gain is selected, integral gain is tuned around and
chosen to be 0.5. It is found that if Kie is greater than Kpe / 2, the response tends to be oscillatory and if Kie is less than Kpe /
2, then response tends to be sluggish. Hence, Kie is chosen to be Kpe / 2.

DESIGN OF CONVENTIONAL CONTROLLER BASED ON THE FAST-ACTING DC-LINK


VOLTAGE CONTROLLER

The conventional dc-link voltage controller can be designed based on equations given for the fast-acting dc-link
voltage controller as in (11) and can be written as

(18)

It can also be written as

(19)

Where (20)

(21)

It is observed from the aforementioned equations that the gains of proportional and integral controllers vary with
respect to time. However, for small ripples in the dc-link voltage, Vdc Vdc ref, therefore, we can approximate the above
gains to the following

(22)

(23)

The relations (17)(18) give approximate gains for a conventional PI controller. This is due to the fact that V dc ref
+ Vdc is not really equal to 2Vdc ref until variation in Vdc is small during transients. Hence, the designed conventional PI

controller works only on approximation. The open-loop gains for the two cases are given by (24)
178 D. Mohan Reddy & T. Gowrimanohar

Where Eer = and (25)

where Er = Vdc ref - Vdc. Since is the same as Kie / Kpe,the higher gain in the conventional PI controller renders

less stability than that of the proposed energy-based dc-link controller. For nearly the same performance, the conventional
PI controller has gains which are 364 (40/0.11 from Table-I) times larger than that of that proposed one. Also, the amplifier
units used to realize these gains need more design considerations and are likely to saturate when used with higher gains.
