This study uses Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) as an optimization technique. Shunt-passive and series-passive filters have been investigated to reduce the harmonic distortion associated with AC drive loads while accounting for utility source and load non-linearities. DC drives represented by their equivalent current source model are much more common in practice. On the opposite side, AC drives are also possible, and they are indicated by their corresponding voltage source model. The performance of the filters for these non-linear loads under different scenarios is compared. It was discovered that the type of non-linear load significantly limits the selection of a suitable compensator.
