Evaluation of Harmonics and THD in Five-Phase Inverter Constructed with High-Pass Filter by MATLAB Simulation

Abstract

This chapter proposes and evaluates the feasible method to minimize the harmonic and its distortion. Many modern power systems incorporate different techniques to eradicate the harmonics, and filters are widespread methods used all over the world. Multi/polyphase power systems are trending because of improved performance of the system by their inherent advantages over traditional single and three-phase techniques [1]. The five-phase inverter is designed and studied with low-pass LC filter to evaluate and eradicate the behavior of harmonics in the five-phase inverter. Harmonics and THD comparison of the five-phase normal configuration with high-pass filter configuration are analyzed practically, and the results are presented in this chapter.
