Abstract
Voltage flicker has gained a lot of attention recently because of the proliferation of the non-linear varying loads in industrial distribution systems. This paper introduces a control algorithm for DSTATCOM to reduce the instantaneous flicker level to acceptable range according to IEEE standards. The mathematical model of DSTATCOM is investigated. Digital simulation results are demonstrated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control concepts.
