Adaptive DC-Link voltage-controlled split-capacitor DSTATCOM for power quality improvement

Variations in load cause power quality concerns primarily on the utility side. FACTS devices were carried out to enhance power quality. Because of the wide operating periods supplied by the power electronic device, a static compensator (DSTATCOM) is preferred. The use of DSTATCOM improves the supplied power reliability on the utility side. Harmonics are reduced in the standard DSTATCOM simulation, along with large electrical stress (i.e., switching loss) across the switches, and the requisite D.C voltage is stable and of high value. As a result, DSTATCOM's dynamic D.C voltage necessity has been raised in order to achieve better power quality. The dc-link voltage is opted depending on loading at the utility side, without limiting the DSTATCOM's effectiveness. The proposed technique calculates the necessary filter current at the utility side using instantaneous symmetrical component theory to improve power quality. The suggested technique develops reference voltage for a voltage control mode Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM). Modeling and analysis are carried out to validate the proposed system.
