Abstract

This paper presents the analysis and the simulation of a single-phase active power filter as the function of UPS. The system provides combined functions of the battery bank energy storage, power factor compensation, harmonic elimination and uninterruption of the power supply. When the utility is in normal operation, the system will not only supply DC power for battery charging, but also function as an active power filter for improving the power factor and reducing the current harmonics on the utility side. If the utility power fails, the proposed system will function as an inverter immediately to supply the battery power to the ac load.
