The constant on-time current-mode controlled (COT-CMC) switching dc-dc converter is stable, with no subharmonic oscillation in its current loop when a voltage ripple in its outer voltage loop is ignored. However, when its output capacitance is small or its feedback gain is high, subharmonic oscillation may occur in a COT-CMC buck converter with a proportional-integral (PI) compensator. To inves...

Received Jan 8, 2018 Revised Mar 23, 2018 Accepted Apr 11, 2018 Distributed energy source based electricity generation is an essential factor for the economic growth and development of a country. The photovoltaic, fuel cell and battery based power generation offer a high voltage gain. The DC-DC CUK converter based on both buck and boost mode of operation is proposed for high gain dc link voltag...

A class of switching system is studied in this paper. A Fractional order controller for Sliding Mode Control (SMC) is proposed to control such systems. An augmented fractional order system is considered in order to design the controller. Therefore, more information about the system is available and the controller will have more degrees of freedom than the integer one. The results can either be ...

In this paper, a DC–DC converter topology with a zero voltage and zero current switching control technique [8] has been proposed for solar PV applications. The proposed converter combine the feature of buck–boost operation capability, at the same time, it can carry out zero voltage and zero current switching on the primary side of the converter transformer. The proposed work has been carried ou...

In hybrid and renewable energy system, multiple-input converter is the best choice to integrate various input sources for supplying power to the load. In this paper, a multi-input DC-DC converter having ability to transfer energy from one of the sources to the energy storage source is presented. This feature results in improved reliability. In addition to this, energy sources having distinct vo...

This paper introduces a sliding mode control (SMC) based equivalent control method to a novel high output gain Cuk converter. An additional inductor and capacitor improves the efficiency and output gain of the classical Cuk converter. Classical PI controllers are widely used in DC-DC converters. However, it is a very challenging task to design a single PI controller operating in different load ...

This work introduces a new non-isolated buck-boost DC-DC converter. Interleaved configuration of the suggested structure increases the voltage conversion ratio. The voltage rate of the suggested converter can be stepped-up and stepped down for lower values of duty-cycle, which causes to decrease in the conduction losses of the system. The voltage conversion ratio of the recommended structure is...

Solar energy is the most promising non-conventional sources of energy. This paper proposes the working of single phase induction motor using solar arrays and power electronics. The SEPIC converter is taken as dc-dc converter which is designed and DC analysis has been done in CCM. Then inverter is used to convert dc power to ac power. The performance of SEPIC converter and inverter is measured, ...
