<p> The comparision of Bridgeless  Isolated Cuk converter using Proportional  Integral  Derivative (PID) and Neural controller (NC) is presented in this paper. Due to Diode Bridge Rectifier (DBR) conventional converters suffer from high conduction loss. Bridgeless Cuk converter is used  to eliminate the issues. Bridgeless   Isolated (BLI)  Cuk  converter is used to withstand high voltage. Compare to Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) utilize less number of sensors. To obtain unity power factor it is used to  work in  DCM mode. BLI Cuk Converter is implemented in  two controller PID and  Neural controller to observe  power factor. Performance of BLDC motor  is simulated  by using MATLAB/SIMULINK software. </p>

This paper deals with PFC-isolated Zeta converter fed LED drive to overcome the power factor problems. The proposed circuit topology consists of diode bridge rectifier and isolated Zeta converter with high frequency transformer. A single –phase supply is used to feed a DBR followed by a filter to avoid any switching ripple in DBR and the supply system. An isolated Zeta converter is operated to work under DCM mode. This combination of DBR and PFC converter is used to feed a LED drive. This converter is simulated in MATLAB platform. This converter provides better results such as unity power factor and less current harmonic distortion.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the influence of adding serial inductance in AC side of the ‎‎3ph -6 pulse bridge rectifier on the reduction of harmonic distortion rate. A simulated model ‎with serial inductance was analyzed. The 3-phase 6-pulse diode bridge rectifier was chosen ‎because it corresponds to the operation of the 6-pulse thyristor bridge rectifier at maximum ‎load (while keeping the angle α = 0). Both the total harmonic distortion (THDi) and the ‎power factor (PF) for the circuit have been measured. The results obtained of the THDi has ‎been recorded for four values of serial inductance and results was compared with the (IEEE 519-1992) standard. Comparison results indicates ‎that for values of inductive reactance (Xi) up to 67% cause a reduction of THDi which is above the standard values, while for (Xi) more than 67% cause a reduction in THDi within the acceptable standard level. Analyzing of results prove that the adding of serial inductance at the AC ‎side leads to good reduction in harmonic distortion rate, but with some reduction in power ‎factor value, which results in some energy losses.

The extensive usage of power electronic components creates harmonics in the voltage and current, because of which, the quality of delivered power gets affected. Therefore, it is essential to improve the quality of power, as we reveal in this paper. The problems of load voltage, source current, and power factors are mitigated by utilizing the unified power flow controller (UPFC), in which a combination of series and shunt converters are combined through a DC-link capacitor. To retain the link voltage and to maximize the delivered power, a PV module is introduced with a high gain converter, named the switched clamped diode boost (SCDB) converter, in which the grey wolf optimization (GWO) algorithm is instigated for tracking the maximum power. To retain the link-voltage of the capacitor, the artificial neural network (ANN) is implemented. A proper control of UPFC is highly essential, which is achieved by the reference current generation with the aid of a hybrid algorithm. A genetic algorithm, hybridized with the radial basis function neural network (RBFNN), is utilized for the generation of a switching sequence, and the generated pulse has been given to both the series and shunt converters through the PWM generator. Thus, the source current and load voltage harmonics are mitigated with reactive power compensation, which results in attaining a unity power factor. The projected methodology is simulated by MATLAB and it is perceived that the total harmonic distortion (THD) of 0.84% is attained, with almost a unity power factor, and this is validated with FPGA Spartan 6E hardware.
