Due to the advent of technology, electronic equipments are much more sensitive to harmonic and its analysis play an important role whereby reducing the distortion due to harmonics needs attention. To meet the requirements of the industries, harmonic free-high rating power sources are in high demand. Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is an indicator of AC voltage source quality. In case of inverters, one such way to reduce THD would be the use of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). The existing methods mainly use the low frequency pulse width modulation techniques for the switching. Control methods emp

Every daily activity requires electrical energy. Electrical energy loads vary. Harmonic distortion is one of the results of current and voltage wave disturbances caused by non-linear loads, such as lamps, computers, and air conditioners, among others. This causes a decrease in the quality of electric power. High resonance disturbances can cause increased harmonics which can reach 4 to 10 times under full charge conditions. One way to overcome harmonic disturbances is by using a harmonic filter. In this study, an active shunt filter with PI control is used to reduce harmonic resonance disturban

Abstract This article presents a way of analyzing the transfer function of electronic signal amplifiers. It also describes the possibility of using signal precorrection which improves the parasitic harmonics in the THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) of the amplified signal by correcting linearity of the tested amplifier’s transfer function. The proposed method of analyzing and presenting the transfer function allows to diagnose the causes of generating parasitic harmonics, what makes it a useful tool when designing low distortion amplifier systems, such as e.g. amplifiers in measurement systems.
