This paper is focused on an adaptive controller for the direct current (DC) voltage in three-phase three-wire shunt active power filters systems. Although the controller structure of the proportional-integral (PI) type is determined off-line and does not change, the prescribed DC voltage and the controller parameters are calculated in an adaptation block, depending on the non-active power to be compensated. The adaptive control is based on the design expressions for the DC circuit of the shunt active power filter found by the authors, based on the detailed analysis of its operation, during the active filtering. The performances of the proposed adaptive control and its advantages compared to the classical control (where the prescribed DC voltage and the controller parameters are constant) were first determined on the virtual model of a laboratory setup. Then, the adaptive control was implemented on the dSPACE 1103 control board, which allowed the experimental determinations that prove and support the results obtained on the virtual model.
