a b s t r a c t To increase the lifetime and performance of equipment in utility distribution systems, the enhancement of power quality is essential. In this paper, to enhance the power quality, we present the design of a hybrid fuzzy back-propagation control scheme for a unified power quality Conditioner. The gating pulses of the UPQC are generated using hybrid fuzzy-back propagation controllers. The reference currents for the controller are estimated using back-propagation algorithms with source currents and load currents as input control parameters. The reference voltages for the controllers are estimated using fuzzy logic controllers for the dc voltage regulator with a terminal voltage, and a dc voltage for the input control parameters. We perform this analysis in zero-voltage regulation mode and power factor correction mode in a multilevel UPQC-connected distribution system. We analyze the results of the total harmonic distortion, dynamic performance, load balancing and mitigation of the voltage sag using MATLAB/Simulink. Ó 2017 Ain Shams University.

1. Introduction A small improvement in the standard power quality significantly affects the lifetime and performance of utility equipment. Most distribution centers have established quality control centres to provide reliable, flexible, and intelligent electrical power supply to customers, even under abnormal circumstances. Intelligent control schemes that utilize artificial intelligence (AI) techniques such as artificial neural networks (ANNs), fuzzy logic, and the artificial bee colony algorithm are good substitutes for conventional control schemes to realize power quality enhancement in existing scenarios. In Ref. [1], the authors proposed artificial intelligence technique in defining optimal operating cost of smart grid. Realizing power quality involves maintaining the quality of voltage, eliminating harmonics that are due to nonlinear loads, and performing load balancing as a result of load imperfections and constant frequency [2]. In Ref. [3], the authors proposed a basic backpropagation algorithm, which proved that the weights in the training process were bounded in that they lead to good convergence.

This algorithm was modified in [4] by changing the total error of the performance function of incremental conductance algorithms such that the learning process is accelerated and can be predicted with better accuracy. In [5], the mathematical analysis of complex versions of the back-propagation algorithm network was proposed using the sinusoidal error representation of the transformation. The power quality of distribution systems has improved owing to the introduction of power electronic devices, called custom power devices, such as distribution static compensators (DSTATCOMs), dynamic voltage restorers (DVRs), and unified power quality conditioners (UPQC). UPQCs combine the functions of a DVR and DSTATCOM [6], and eliminates harmonics, voltage sag, and load balancing. The estimation and elimination of harmonics is an area of interest for many researchers. In three-phase distribution systems, the harmonics can be estimated and eliminated using the variable step size least mean squares approach, as proposed in [7], for shunt active-power filters with various simulation results. The DSTATCOM is an effective device for the elimination of harmonics using advanced control techniques, as in [8–10]. In [8], a DSTATCOM was modelled using a self-tuning filter-based instantaneous reactive power theory control algorithms, and it was validated using digital signal processors. The method proposed in [9], symmetrical component theory and improved instantaneous active and reactive current component theory control strategies,

and compared these two under unbalanced conditions. The intelligent control scheme using back-propagation algorithms for DSTATCOM was proposed in [10]. In short, existing studies have attempted to eliminate harmonics by estimating harmonics. To extend this attempt to voltage sags and load balancing, the UPQC was proposed under unbalanced load and non-ideal voltage mains conditions, as in [11]. In Ref. [12], the authors proposed exponential control algorithm based UPQC to mitigate the power quality. Synchronous reference frame-based control schemes have been proposed to three-phase four wire with UPQC, and the computational delay was reduced and analyzed using MATLAB / Simulink [13]. In [14], A fuzzy based multiobjective optimization technique was proposed in hybrid distributed generation system. An active power conditioners were used in industrial distribution systems for voltage harmonics, current harmonics, voltage sag, and load-balancing evaluations. Fuzzy logic controllers (FLCs) and ANN are the two branches of AI. This work combines the advantages of ANNs and FLCs to design a new control scheme [15]. An adaptive neural fuzzy inference system (ANFIS-) based fault-classification control schemes for neutral grounded distribution systems was proposed [16]. In Ref. [17], An ANN-based DSTATCOM with one cycle control strategy was proposed to mitigate harmonics. In Ref. [18], the authors proposed comparison of Genetic algorithms (GAs), particle-swarm optimization (PSO), and the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm which are recently developed AI techniques in the field of electrical engineering, with integer order and fractional order techniques. In recent years, owing to an increase in the use of nonlinear power electronic equipment, power quality has become a major issue, and hybrid AI techniques are currently being researched for UPQCs. An efficient multilayered ANN-based active power filter was proposed the shift method to reduce harmonics [19]. The PSO technique has been evaluated based on error convergence and compared with backpropagation neural networks [20]. Power quality enhancement using AI-controlled schemes is the latest area of research in the field of custom power devices in electrical distribution systems. The fuzzy control strategy was developed for UPQC with sudden switching loads [21]. The performance of compensating devices can be determined by measuring the degree of extraction of harmonic components and voltage sag. In this paper, we present a hybrid fuzzy back-propagationbased control scheme for three-phase shunt and series connected custom power devices, called a UPQC, for the estimation of a reference-weighted value for current and voltage components.

The proposed control scheme for UPQC can suppress harmonics, as well as mitigate voltage sag, and load balancing. 2. System configuration We tested the proposed control scheme on a three-phase distribution system that consists of three-phase sources and threephase linear/nonlinear loads. A series multilevel voltage source converter (VSC) is connected to the three-phase distribution system through a three-phase injection transformer, and a shunt multilevel VSC is connected through an interfacing inductor at the point of common coupling (PCC), as shown in Fig. 2. In Section 3, we discuss the generation gating pulses to the cascaded H-bridge inverter [22] using a hybrid fuzzy back-propagation network controller. A UPQC is a custom power device that is a combination of a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) and distribution STATCOM (DSTACOM). The multilevel inverter UPQC (MI-UPQC) three-phase voltages (vcabc) are injected to compensate for the voltage sag, and three-phase currents (icabc) are injected to cancel the reactive power components of the load currents on the distribution system. The number of voltage levels is 2n + 1, and Vdc/2n is the voltage step for the two single phase cascaded H-bridge inverters, as shown in Fig. 1, and the switching modes of operation are presented in Table 1. The number of capacitors required for a H bridge five level UPQC are six, where each phase is shared by two H-bridge invert-

3. Hybrid fuzzy back-propagation control scheme 3.1. Back-propagation network The design and implementation of hybrid fuzzy backpropagation controllers is presented in three stages. In the first stage, we estimate the reference in-phase and quadrature components of currents. Then, in the second stage, we estimate the reference voltages. The third stage involves combining the two references and estimating the final reference unit values for the pulse-width modulation process. In the first stage, load currents (iLa, iLb, and iLc) act as inputs to the back-propagation network, as shown in Fig. 3. The extracted in-phase and quadrature values (netyap , netybp , netycp , netyaq , netybq , and netycq ) are applied through
the activation of the sigmoid function. The real and reactive output signals (YLap, YLbp, YLcp, YLaq, YLbq, and YLcq) of the feed-forward section of hidden layer I for three phases are expressed by Eqs. (A1)–(A12). The output signals of hidden layer I (YLap, YLbp, YLcp, YLaq, YLbq, and YLcq) are fed as inputs for the hidden layer II of the backpropagation network. This input vector is propagated through the multi layer neural network, as shown in Fig. 3. The extracted in-phase and quadrature values are multiplied by respective weights (netzap , netzbp , netzcp , netzaq , netzbq , and netzcq ), and are applied by activating the sigmoid function. The output signals (Zap, Zbp, Zcp, ZLaq, Zbq, and Zcq) of the feed-forward section of hidden layer II for three phases are expressed by Eqs. (A13)–(A24). The weights between hidden layer II and output layer are in the ratio of 1:3. The outputs of the network for the real and reactive components are expressed by Eqs. (A25)–(A28). The real and reactive weights (v) between hidden layer I and hidden layer II, the network shown in Fig. 3 for three phases (a, b and c) can be adjusted, using back-propagation training algorithm. The weights are updated in the direction that reduces the harmonic distortion, voltage sag, voltage swell, and load unbalancing and these are expressed by Eqs. (A29)–(A40). 3.2. Fuzzy logic controller design for MI-UPQC An FLC involves fuzzification, fuzzy rules, a fuzzy inference system, and defuzzification. The FLC is used as terminal voltage regulator and a DC voltage regulator, as shown in Fig. 6. In the DC voltage regulator, the FLC has as its two inputs the error (ei = V⁄dc – Vidc; i = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) and the rate of change of error De (A44), and Fp as the fuzzy output. The number of DC common voltage regulators for series and shunt converters, that are used

in this H-bridge inverter UPQC are (n + 1), where ‘n’ is the number of levels. Similarly, for the terminal voltage regulator, the FLC has as its two inputs the error (e = V⁄t – Vt) and the rate of change of error De (A45). The triangular membership functions are used as the inputs of the FLC, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5. The linguistic variables for the error, e, and rate of change of error, De, along with the fuzzy controller output are given as ‘‘PH” - Positive High, ‘‘PM” - Positive Medium, ‘‘PL” - Positive Low, ‘‘Z” – Zero, ‘‘NL” - Negative Low, ‘‘NM” –‘‘Negative Medium, and ‘‘NH” - Negative High. One terminal voltage regulator is used in this H-bridge inverter UPQC and it can be calculated from Eq. (A41). From a practical perspective, fuzzy rules are developed using linguistic variables that are formulated in the form of ‘‘IF THEN” rules. The fuzzy rules for the terminal voltage regulator and DC voltage regulator are given in Table 2. 3.3. Fuzzy back-propagation control scheme The in-phase and quadrature unit voltages can be used as reference vectors to generate gating pulses by gating pulse

generator as shown in Fig. 6, so as to improve the power quality (A42) and (A43). The in-phase component of the reference source current amplitude (GP) is the sum of the output of the dc bus fuzzy controller (FP) and the in-phase output of the back-propagation network as represented in (A46). The component of the quadrature reference source current amplitude (Gq) is the sum of the output of the terminal bus fuzzy controller (Fq) and the quadrature output of the back-propagation network (A47). The three-phase reference in-phase source current and voltage components can be obtained using the amplitude of the three-phase load’s inphase current components and the PCC’s in-phase unit voltages as in (A48)–(A51). We compared the source currents (isa, isb, isc) with the reference source currents (A52), and three error signals (54) are fed to a PWM technique in order to generate the switching signals for insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) S1 to S12 of the shunt multilevel VSC. We compared the source voltages (vsa, vsb, vsc) with the reference source voltages (A53), and three voltage error signals (A55) are fed to a PWM in order to generate the switching signals for IGBTs S0 1 to S0 12 of the

5. Conclusions UPQC can compensate the voltage and current levels under abnormal conditions such as those involving DVR and DSTATCOM, and reduce current and voltage harmonics. In ZVR mode, the load currents have a THD of 28.87%, which has been compensated to 2.27% at the source side. In PFC mode, the load currents have a THD of 25.74%, which has been compensated to 2.24% at the source side. In ZVR mode, the voltage harmonics at the load side has a THD of 1.07%, and it is 0.91% at the source end. In PFC mode, the voltage harmonics at the load side has a THD of 1.04%, and it is 1.04% at the source end. We conclude that the proposed five-level UPQC and its control scheme are suitable for nonlinear load compensation even under faulty conditions with respective to the THD, voltage sag, and load balancing using the back-propagation control scheme. The DC voltage of the UPQC was regulated using the fuzzy controller at the voltage without any overshoot or undershoot under abnormal conditions. The proposed hybrid
fuzzy back-propagation control scheme has been used to estimate gating signals for series and shunt VSCs of multilevel UPQCs. Appendix A.
