This paper proposes the structured singular value ( ) approach to the problem of designing an output voltage regulator for a Buck-Boost converter with current-mode control. This approach allows a quantitative description of the effects of reactive components’ tolerances and operating point variations, which strongly affect the converter dynamics. At first, a suitable linear converter model is d...

In this paper, a robust closed-loop cascaded controller is designed and rigidly analyzed for an inverting buck-boost converter. The fast inner current loop uses sliding mode control (SMC). The slow outer voltage loop uses the proportional-integral (PI) control. Analysis of stability and robustness, proof of nonminimum phase structure, and proper selection of PI gains are based on the closed-loo...

This paper presents a power factor corrected (PFC) bridgeless (BL) buck–boost converter-fed brushless direct current(BLDC) motor drive as a cost-effective solution for low-power applications. An approach of speed control of the BLDC motor by controlling the dc link voltage of the voltage source inverter (VSI) is used with a single voltage sensor. This facilitates the operation of VSI at fundame...

Nonlinear systems, such as switching DC-DC boost or buck converters, have rich dynamics. A simple one-dimensional discrete-time model is used to analyze the boost or buck converter in discontinuous conduction mode. Seven different control schemes (open-loop power stage, voltage mode control, current mode control, constant power load, constant current load, constanton-time control, and boundary ...

In this paper the design and the operation of the drive system in a Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) is presented. The system consists of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) stack, an interleaved boost converter, battery pack connected via a bidirectional buck-boost converter and a brushless DC motor (BLDC) driven by a three phase inverter. A basic analysis of each component of the in...

Most of the power electronic equipments are operated with dc supply. For reliable and stable operation, dc supply should be regulated. The regulation can be performed using buck, boost, Cûk, Sepic, Flyback regulators. Except single phase rectifier with resistive load all other rectifiers input currents are non sinusoidal in nature. This front end current distortion of rectifier converter leads ...
