3 BIBLIOGRAPHY

It presents both DC and AC active filters, including the existing installations. The items of the report are basically arranged in two consecutive parts, the first one treating the DC application, and the second covering the AC filters. As active DC and AC filters share many concepts, the reader interested in such a subject is encouraged to search for it in both parts.
