2F Active Filter for Traction Drive
Description
SuperGrid Institute has patented an active filtering solution, buffering the AC power generated by railway on-board converters supplying traction DC buses through a low frequency transformer and rectifiers. The volume and weight of the passive components used to filter the oscillating power are drastically reduced compared to a passive filter.
