Power Quality Improvementusing Fuzzy Based Csc Converter

In this project a design of fuzzy based canonical switching cell converter is proposed to achieve a power factor close to unity. A front end canonical switching cell converter operating in Discontinuous Inductor Current Mode (DICM) is proposed for PFC operation at AC mains. Fuzzy logic is introduced in order to suppress the chattering and enhancing the robustness of the PFC control system. Thus International Electro-technical Commission standard 61000-3-2 (IEC) and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE-519) standards of power quality can be achieved.
