Abstract: Electromagnetic compatibility of power electronic systems becomes an engineering discipline and it should be considered at the beginning stage of a design. Thus, a power electronics design becomes more complex and challenging and it requires a good communication between EMI and Power electronics experts. Three major issues in designing a power electronic system are Losses, EMI and Harmonics. These issues affect system cost, size, efficiency and quality and it is a tradeoff between these factors when we design a power converter, filter. In this paper the EMC model is discussed which should be considered while designing the power electronics systems. The design considerations in this paper help us to remove losses, harmonics & EMI elimination and power quality improvement of Power systems.

Keywords: Converter, EMI, EMC, Filter, Harmonics
