Due to rapid increase in utilization of power electronics, appliances for energy distribution and

generation is in demand. The traditional devices provide degraded performance, which pave the
path for advanced compensated devices. Distribution Static Synchronous Compensator (DSTATCOM),
which can be dynamically controlled and helps to improve power quality (PQ) problems. This paper
discusses the various control methods required to improve dynamic capabilities of DSTATCOM for
various applications. INTRODUCTION All electronics and electrical equipment suffers from power
quality (PQ) issues, when connected to a distribution system. This leads to currents distortion and
voltage collapse [1-2], resulting in poor performance of the equipment and power losses. The rapid
growth in use of power electronics devices for utility grid and industries impose the providers to
select a device carefully. Among all controllers, Distribution compensator is the most effective and
powerful device device to address the issues associated with power quality. [3-10]. A Distribution
compensator is the power device which is implemented in shunt configuration to improve the
problems related to quality of the power. It provides stability in the voltage by controlling reactive
power, suppresses flicker noise and also does compensation. The DSTATCOM can operate in two
modes namely: voltage and current. The control algorithm which is used for voltage source inverter
(VSI) switching [3] decides the effect of compensation. The DSTATCOM’s performance depends upon
the control algorithms which are generally used to generate source current. An overview of recent
control techniques which are available in literature used for DSTATCOM is described in this paper. The
structure of the paper is described. The operation principle of shunt compensator is described in
Section 2 and current control techniques in Section 3. Voltage current techniques are described in
section 4. In section 5, the control techniques are compared. The conclusion of the literature
reviewed in the paper is concluded in section 6. CLASSIFICATION ACCORDING TO MITIGATED PQ
PROBLEMS The DSTATCOM is mainly used to compensate the PQ problems. This includes voltage and
current quality, harmonics distortion and load unbalanced problems like currents reactive
component, unbalance and neutral current at PCC. The DSTATCOM can be made to function in two
modes: single and dual. In this paper, two modes of operation are used. The single mode provides
compensation to any one of current or voltage while dual mode provides compensation for both
current and voltage. DSTATCOM and its Operating Principles The DSTATCOM is one of power device
which is connected to shunt. Its components are VSI, a DC-link device which is required for energy
storage, a filter in output stage and
