Abstract

A converter device is provided. The converter device includes a filter circuit, a DC link and an active rectifier interconnected between the filter circuit and the DC link. A method for determining at least one parameter (b) of the filter circuit is also provided. The method includes switching the active rectifier into an active state, where a first active rectifier leg connects a first phase of the filter circuit with a positive side of the DC link and a second active rectifier leg connects a second phase of the filter circuit with a negative side of the DC link; determining a time series (y) of current values by measuring a current through the filter circuit; and determining the at least one parameter (b) of the filter circuit by calculating a best fit of the at least one parameter (b) from a difference equation of the filter circuit.
