 Abstract   Although three-phase three-wire shunt active power filters have been implemented using both voltage and current source technology, four-wire shunt active power filters have mainly been implemented as voltage source active power filters. This paper presents a study of a current source shunt four-wire active power filter topology. The main circuit of the studied topology consists of a four-leg current source PWM converter bridge with an LC-filter on the supply side. The control system is implemented discretely-timed in the synchronous reference frame in an open-loop manner using only a feedforward connection of the load currents. The control delay is compensated using a prediction based current reference generation method in the steady state and a computational control delay compensation method in the transient state of operation. The performance of the proposed system is tested through computer simulations.
