This paper presents a combined sliding mode space vector modulation control of the shunt active power filter using robust harmonic extraction method to improve the power quality such as current harmonics and reactive power compensation due to the non-linear loads and unbalanced voltage source. To verify the validity of the analysis and the feasibility of the proposed control method a set of simulation tests have been conducted using Matlab/Simulink. A comparison between the conventional instantaneous powers method (PQ) used for harmonic extracting and the new PQ based on a multivariable extraction filter demonstrates the superiority of the proposed control scheme.

This paper presents a hybrid feedback linearisation-based predictive direct power control strategies of the unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) combined with a photovoltaic generator (PVG) using space vector modulation technique for power quality enhancement. The PVG-UPQC is acting as a universal conditioner for power quality enhancement and renewable energy integration simultaneously, and it mitigates harmonics in both voltage and current caused by nonlinear loads in addition to reactive power compensation. The PVG-UPQC is made up of a dc bus powered by the photovoltaic generator that connects shunt and series active power filters. The shunt filter functions as a current source and compensates for current harmonics. The series filter compensates for voltage harmonics and fluctuations such voltage sag/swell by acting as a voltage source. In order to enhance the performances of PVG-UPQC, a hybrid control method based on FL -PDPC combined with a three-level SVM controller is proposed. The aims are to deliver compensation signals faster and more accurately under a variety of load conditions, as well as eliminate voltage and current harmonics while maintaining good dynamic response. The performance of the suggested control scheme is validated by extensive simulation results obtained by Matlab/Simulink for a sensitive nonlinear load. These results are compared with those obtained with a linear PI controller proves the superiority and effectiveness of FL-PDPC controller.

In this paper, an implementation of a feedback linearisation-based on SVM control of a multifunctional unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) combined with a photovoltaic generator (PVG) using STM32F429I-DISC DSP board has been presented. Further, The PVG-UPQC is acting as a universal conditioner for power quality enhancement and renewable energy integration simultaneously with harmonics reduction in both grid voltage and current. Furthermore, the system can also compensate reactive power in presence of nonlinear loads. The presented system is made up of a shunt active power filter which acts as a current harmonics compensator in addition to a series filter that compensates voltage harmonics and fluctuations such as voltage sag/swell. In order to enhancing the PVG-UPQC performances, a nonlinear feedback linearisation control technique combined with SVM controller is applied. The performance of the suggested control scheme is validated by extensive PIL co-simulation technique. The obtained results prove the high performances and reliability of the presented system in the case of nonlinear load variations as well as eliminating voltage and current harmonics. These results accomplish the superiority and effectiveness of those obtained by a compared to a conventional PI controller.
