This paper deals with filter design for utility-interactive voltage-sourced PWM inverters built by single-phase full-bridge topology By analyzing the relation between utility voltage and the ac output voltage of single-phase half-bridge inverters, the instantaneous voltage applied on the filter inductor is deduced qualitatively and quantitatively. Moreover, switching ripple current through the filter inductor is calculated from the filter inductor voltage. Based on the above mentioned analysis, filter design method is proposed by evaluating the percentage of the switching ripple current against the rated fundamental current. Proposed filter design method is verified by simulation and experiment.

This paper proposes a design method of LCL-filter for a grid-connected three-phase inverter using a discontinuous PWM (DPWM) method. When using a DPWM method, many harmonic voltages are generated in the inverter output compared to a continuous PWM (CPWM) method. Therefore, an optimized grid-connected filter design is required for a DPWM method. The proposed design method provides generalized formula to design accurate LCL-filter without trial and error procedures. An inverter side inductance is designed by analyzing the current ripple injected to the grid. The Optimized parameters of LCL-filter can be designed by analyzing the total harmonic distortion (THD) and the ripple attenuation factor of the output current. The proposed LCL filter design method is demonstrated by simulation and experimental results.

Previous publications regarding the design and specifications of input filters for STATCOMs usually deal with the input filter only, and seldom pay any attention to the influence of the input filters on the performance of the STATCOM systems. A detailed analysis of the influences of input filters on the stability of STATCOM systems and the corresponding design considerations are presented in this paper. Three types of input filters, L filters, LC filters, and LCL filters, are examined separately. The influences of the parameters of input filters on system stability are investigated through frequency domain methods. With direct current control taken as the major control strategy for the STATCOMs, the different situations when adopting different current detection points are covered in this analysis. A comparison between LC filters and LCL filters is also presented with optimized filter parameters. Based on the analysis, the phase margin, as one of the design considerations for the different types of input filters under different current detection schemes, is discussed. This leads to filter parameters that are different than those of the traditional design. Hardware experimental results verify the validity of the above analysis and design.

The BPF designed by the formula based on strip line shows the center frequency shift and distortion in filter response and this becomes more significant with higher frequency. In this paper, the novel design based on EM simulation is proposed. In the design, the filter is decomposed into individual resonators and, for each resonator, the reactance slope and the inverter values are measured and tuned to desired design values for a inverter BPF prototype. The filter composed with such resonators shows the desired filter response without further tuning. This is because possible effects of discontinuities and dispersion are included in the filter parameter extraction. The method can generally apply to all filters that can be transformed into inverter BPF prototype. The procedure is verified by designing a 5th-order SIR filter and quite general to adapt into the design of a parallel coupled line filter, and hair-pin filter.

Marine radars are affected by sea and rain clutters, which can make target discrimination difficult. The clutter standard deviation and improvement factor are applied using multiple parameters-moving speed of radar, antenna speed, angle, etc. When a radar signal is processed, a Data Matrix Bank (DMB) filter can be applied to remove sea clutters. This filter allows detection of a target, and since it is not affected by changes in adjacent clutters resulting from a multi- target signal, sea state clutters can be removed. In this paper, we study the level for clutter removal and the method for target detection. In addition, we design a signal processing algorithm for marine radars, analyze the performance of the DMB filter algorithm, and provide a DMB filter algorithm design. We also perform a DMB filter algorithm analysis and simulation, and then apply this to the DMB filter and cell-average constant false alarm rate design to show comparative results.

In this paper, the methods are presented for the calculation of general coupling coefficient matrixes used in the band pass filter design. They are calculated from transmission coefficient($S_{21}$) and reflection coefficient($S_{11}$) with desired characteristics derived from the poles of filter function and return loss(RL). The calculated matrixes from this method are transformed to the folded canonical filter structure using similarity transformation which lends us the practical filter design. Based on the resulting matrix, the folded canonical filter has been designed.

In this study, a novel third-order bandpass filter, which is based on a rectangular closed loop resonator, is presented. By adding a series resonator to the conventional loop resonator, the resonator's even resonant mode is split into two modes, while the odd resonant mode is not affected. Therefore, by varying the values of the series resonator elements, the resonant frequencies of two even modes can be determined independent of the odd-mode resonant frequency. In the proposed triple-mode filter design, instead of using a lumped series resonator, a T-shaped transmission line is coupled to the resonator via a small gap. To verify the design method, a filter is designed at 2.4 GHz with a bandwidth of 100 MHz. The improved performances of the proposed triple-mode filter are compared with those of the conventional dual mode filter.

There are several methods for the design of 2D filter. Notable among them is McClellan transform method. This transform allows us to obtain a high order 2D FIR filter through mapping the 1D frequency points of a 1D prototype FIR filter onto 2D frequency contours. We design 2D filter using this transform. Then we notice for mapping deviation of the 2D filter. In this paper, Quadratic programming (QP) method allows us to obtain coefficients of McClellan transform. Then we compare deviation of QP method with least-squares(LS) method. Elliptic filter is used for comparison. The optimal cutoff frequencies of a 1D filter are obtained directly from the QP method. Also several problem of LS method are solved.

In this study, the design methodology of LCL filter for grid-connected three-phase inverter was studied. First, the advantages and disadvantages of applying typical filter structures as a filter for grid connection of a three-phase inverter were analyzed. Next, filter design methodologies for grid connection of a three-phase inverter were analyzed, and an effective filter design methodology was determined to satisfy the harmonic requirements in grid connection. In order to verify the effectiveness of the design methodology, EMTP models such as a three-phase inverter, a three-phase LCL filter, and a performance evaluation system to evaluate the performance of the designed filter were developed using EMTP-RV. Next, an LCL filter was designed for an application example of a three-phase inverter, and the waveforms of the output voltage and outage current of the three-phase inverter were checked through EMTP-RV simulation work. In particular, the validity of the design methodology was verified by confirming that the magnitude of the current ripple was reduced to a limited magnitude through waveform analysis of the output current.
