AB  - This study a proposed a new series active filter,
based on a matrix converter without energy storage
devices to mitigate the current harmonics. By connecting
the matrix converter output terminals to the load side
connected with series transformer and the input side of
matrix converter is connected to the supply side. So, a
matrix converter injects the compensation voltage on the
load-side, so, it is possible to mitigate the voltage
sag/swell problems, resulting in an efficient solution for
mitigating voltage related power quality problems. Thus,
the proposed topology can mitigate the voltage
fluctuations without energy storage elements and the total
harmonic distortion produced by the system also very
low. Space-Vector Modulation (SVM) is used to control
the matrix converter. MATLAB/Simulink based
simulation results are presented to validate the approach.
