A Comparative Study of ANN and Traditional Control Techniques based Active Shunt Power Filter for 400 Hz Aircraft Electric Power System

Abstract

Sinusoidal current control strategy for extracting reference current for shunt active power filters have been modified using artificial neural network (ANN) and its performances have been compared too. The acute analysis of comparison of the compensation capability is based upon THD, speedwell and recommendations will be given for the choice of technique to be used. The simulated results using MATLAB model are shown in this paper, and they will undoubtedly prove the importance of the proposed control technique of aircraft shunt APF.
