Abstract: Harmonic current suppression and semiconductors protection depend greatly on the stability of dc side voltage of the inverter.
This paper presents a simulation and experimental study of a three-phase four wire shunt active power filter based on two level
voltage source inverter. The study is focused on dc bus voltage control where it is proposed to use sliding mode controller that
provides higher performance and better robustness. Therefore, the main motivation of this work is to find a suitable and
efficient control algorithm to obtain a lower total harmonic distortion (THD) and better compensation. The algorithm that is
used in identifying the reference currents is based on p_q theory improved by self-tuning filter. This latter has a perfect ability
in harmonic currents extraction. To prove the effectiveness of proposed system, simulation and real time implementation of the
developed algorithms were conducted using Matlab/Simulink and experimental platform. The obtained results demonstrate that
the employment of this technique enhances the performance of active filter in harmonic current suppression and semiconductors
protection.
