IV. CONCLUSION:
The proposed APF has a simple control circuit
and low cost of implementation. From the above
Fig.5 Load currents analysis and simulation results it can be found that the
proposed APF has all the performance of conventional
active power filters. The effectiveness of the proposed
method is demonstrated in the quality of the supply
current after filtering and the reduction of THD of the
supply current. Therefore the proposed APF can
suppress the current harmonic to force the supply
current to be sine wave. The simulation result indicates
that the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the source
current reduced and the power factor is improved.
