Abstract |
This paper presents a new power electronics circuit that can be used for real and reactive power regulation in power systems. The circuit injects a sinusoidal current at variable phase and magnitude into the power system. The proposed high-frequency high-power
resonant system is soft switched in most operating modes, less lossy, generates lower EMI, and has a faster response time than the currently available compensation schemes. The paper
describes the concept of current injection for power quality control in power systems, verification using simulation studies, and proof of principle hardware implementation. |
