Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of Series Active Filter (SAF) in conjunction with boost converter fed from a small capacity Renewable Energy Source (RES) for the control of DC voltage. Two control schemes like PI controller based Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) switching and hysteresis voltage controller based switching have been employed in the study. Boost converter is used to maintain the required DC voltage of SAF. The percentage total harmonic distortion of the compensated load voltage has been considered as a measure for comparison. It has been observed from the simulation results that under non sinusoidal supply and non liner loading conditions, the performance of SAF with hysteresis voltage controller is better.
