ABSTRACT
Performance Evaluation of an Active Filter Non-RegenerativeAC Drive. (December 2007)Alex Joseph Skorcz, B.S.E., Arkansas State UniversityChair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Mehrdad EhsaniThe purpose of this work is to evaluate the performance of a specific ac drivetopology that is of current interest in industry. With the increasing pressure forcompliance with IEEE

519 and other international harmonic standards, many ac drivemanufacturing companies are seeking innovative and cost effective solutions forcontrolling the amount of harmonics produced at the point of common coupling (PCC).The proposed topology is a potential alternative to the three-phase diode bridge which isthe conventional rectifier topology for non-regenerative applications.The work of this thesis explains the theory of operation, control algorithms, andpotential improvement strategies for the proposed

boost rectifiertopology. The entire ac drive system with load is then modeled and the results verifiedusing the Simulink simulation package.It is shown that the proposed topology has several distinct advantages over atraditional diode rectifier such as improved total harmonic distortion (THD) of thecurrent waveforms, dc bus voltage regulation, and power factor control. In addition,these advantages are created at a price point which is significantly lower than that of a
