Direct Power Control of Shunt Active Power Filter using Space Vector Modulation based on Super Twisting Sliding Mode Control

This article proposes direct power control (DPC) associated with space vector modulation (SVM) for a shunt active power filter (SAPF). This control is suggested in order to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional DPC, where the SVM is able to decrease the high active and reactive power ripples maintaining a fixed switching frequency. In addition, the performance of the proposed scheme is improv...
