DC-link capacitor voltage balancing for a five-level diode-clamped active power filter using redundant vectors

This paper investigates the compensation and modulation processes of the five-level diode-clamped active power filter, compensating a three-phase rectified resistor-inductor load with redundant vectors. From the analysis, a hybrid space vector modulation algorithm allows capacitor voltage balancing....

Summary:This paper investigates the compensation and modulation processes of the five-level diode-clamped active power filter, compensating a three-phase rectified resistor-inductor load with redundant vectors. From the analysis, a hybrid space vector modulation algorithm allows capacitor voltage balancing. Simulation and experimental results validate the space vector modulation algorithm. KEYWORDS: Five-level diode-clamped active power filter; capacitor voltage balancing; space vector modulation; non-linear loads.
