ABSTRACT
As a kernel technique of active power filter (APF),
harmonic detection and its tracking method are
investigated in this paper. Firstly, according to APF
discussed here, an adaptive notch filter is presented
and the LMS algorithm is examined to meet the
crucial requirements of the filters tracking behavior
under time-varying condition. Secondly, an upgraded
method is emphasized on the basis of the traditional
LMS algorithm, the variable step-size method is
analyzed with both its merits and demerits, in order to
guarantee the convergence rate and steady-state
performance, a correct- max mending method is
introduced as the major solution to improve the
performance of variable step-size, so as to obtain good
tracking reliability as well as rapidity. For better
understanding, the simulation results are given out and
illustrated, with the friendly toolbox of Matlab.

I. INTRODUCTION
Harmonics, as the major issue of the power quality
problems, concerns both power manufacturers and
customers, becomes a great challenge to suppress it
under corresponding criterions. Recently, APF is
efficiently designed and widely applied to many
rigorous
occasions
to
suppress
harmonics
automatically.
Along with the development of semiconductorelectron industry, a lot of power electronic devices
and computer loads are being used widely in power
transmission and distribution systems. Not only are
these types of loads a source of additional harmonics,
but they also have a high sensitivity to non-sinusoidal
waveforms. Harmonic pollution has become very
serious problem for both utilities and customers. What
an ideal public power network provides is the reliable
and clean fundamental frequency sinusoidal electric

estimation using error signals, it can adjust the stepsize effectively and ensure rapid dynamic response
rate; furthermore, it decreases the interference of
uncorrelated noise signal updating the step-size, even
if under strong interferences, the system still hold
considerably small steady-state error.
The step-size recursive formula is as follows
4) Rate of convergence
As is intuitively expected, the smaller the step-size
and the farther the initial coefficients are from their
optimum settings, the more iteration it takes for the
LMS algorithm to converge.

V. CONCLUSIONS
In this paper the improved harmonic tracking method
applied to APF is discussed, by choosing the adaptive
notch filter, we basically analyzed its adaptive
filtering algorithmsLMS algorithm, aiming at
estimating the sharp time-varying harmonics
efficiently, two improved methods named variable
step-size LMS algorithm and correct- max LMS
algorithm are introduced, a novel correct- max LMS
proposed can efficiently make up for the deficiency of
the variable step-size LMS which may abort in
tracking. With the powerful tool Matlab, we compared
their tracking performances, and verified that the new
proposed method is especially suitable in sharp timevarying systems.
