This paper explores a configuration for boost half bridge DC-DC converters, connected in parallel at the input and series at the output, such that the converters share the input current and load voltage equally. A stable control scheme has been developed to achieve this objective. In order to verify the effectiveness and stability of control scheme, input-parallel output-series (IPOS) connected...

This paper describes some of the more unusual phenomena associated with RF/microwave measurements that have been investigated by the author over the past twelve years. It has been found that, from some high profile publications, microwave measurements have been either performed in error or their results wrongly interpreted. Four categories have been identified and two examples from each are dis...

In this paper, we present a system specialized for measuring the direction-of-arrival (DoA) of electromagnetic waves with noticeable simplicity. Unlike common methods, which are based heavily on complex computation and signal processing, our proposed is considerably simpler, both in terms design operating theory. Our consists two directional antennas collecting incident waves, Wilkinson power c...

the aim of this paper is to design a fractional order sliding mode controllers (fosmc)for a class of dc-dc converters such as boost and buck converters. firstly, the control lawis designed with respect to the properties of fractional calculus, the design yields an equiv-alent control term with an addition of discontinuous (attractive) control law. secondly, themathematical proof of the stabilit...

A new synchronous rectifier (SR) driving method is proposed using primary current sensing in this paper. Because the magnetizing current of transformer is included in primary winding of transformer, it can’t be used to generate the driving signals of SRs directly. A current compensating winding in current transformer is used to cancel out the magnetizing current and generate suitable driving si...

This paper presents an approach for teaching and learning dc-dc converter design using MathCAD. MathCAD provides advantages that greatly improve teaching and learning process especially when long and complicated design equations are involved such as those found in dc-dc converters. A design example using Excel is presented and then compared with the same example using MathCAD. Experience learne...

In this paper, a new in-package high efficiency voltage down converter (VDC) is presented. Usually, quality factor of inductors is the main problem for generating high efficiency DC-DC Converters. In order to mitigate this problem, Bonding Wires with a new form are exploited in which four mutual inductions of bonding wire are used to increase the total inductance. This technique provides a high...

As the deployment of distributed generation continues, an increasing number of DC/AC power inverters will be interfaced into the electric grid. Groupings of these power inverters, along with distributed storage and load, are referred to as microgrids. Microgrids offer the potential for unprecedented reliability and flexibility, but also pose new control challenges. Inverters in microgrids must ...
