1. Introduction
To supply superior quality power to the electric traction
load and distributed groups of loads in intelligent building
etc., researchers have studied and developed the singlephase active power filters [1], [2].
How to reduce the capacity of storage energy for the
compensation of harmonics is important in the control
schemes of active power filters. Therefore, Akagis
instantaneous reactive power compensation theory and
others have been applied in various control methods [3].
However, this theory cannot be applied for the single-phase
active power filter because the instantaneous power is
instantly fed from one phase to the other phases of the
power system [4].
Therefore, conventional detection approaches like the
notch filter and FFT have difficulty in achieving steady
state and dynamic characteristics simultaneously to meet
the need of real time harmonic detection and compensation
[5].
To improve these drawbacks, this paper presents a new
approach for single-phase harmonic detection method,
from which the fundamental component of the load current
are
expressed as follows:
i L, Re ( t ) = I Re1 sin( t - ) +
n =2
I Re 2 n -1 sin[( 2 n 1) t 2 n 1 ]

6. Experimental Results
Before the experiment, simulation was carried out with
the simulation package (PSIM) and under the condition of
the system parameters of Table 1. Fig. 4 shows the source
current, reference current, compensation current, and
supply voltage before and after compensation. The result of
this simulation indicated that the source current THD was
improved from 18.4% to 3.1%. This result satisfies the
regulations of IEEE std. 519.
Abreast with this simulation, experimental results are
presented to validate the proposed scheme. In Fig. 3, the
single-phase parallel active power filter, which is
connected in parallel with the non-linear loads, are
represented, and Table 2 shows the system parameters of
the active power filter system. The input voltage of the

7. Conclusion
A control scheme of a single-phase active power filter based on
rotating reference frame method to compensate harmonics was
proposed in this paper. This method can perform the
instantaneous calculation (what calculation?) without the delay of
phase T/4. Especially, under transient states, the proposed control
method can calculate the current compensation reference
accurately. The THD of the source current was reduced from 19%
to 4%, which satisfies the regulations of IEEE std. 519. These
experimental results verified the effectiveness of the control
algorithm.
