Passivity{based feedback controllers are derived for the indirect stabilization of the average output voltage in Pulse{Width{Modulation (PWM) controlled dc{to{dc power converters of the \boost", \buck{boost" and \buck" types. The controller design is carried out on the basis of well known average PWM models of such circuits. These models are shown to be Euler{Lagrange systems corresponding to a...

A new resonant switch is introduced which employs nonlinear tank elements. Zero current switching is obtained. yet the peak transistor voltage and current stresses can approach those of an equivalent ideal PWM converter. Reduced switching loss without a substantial increase in conductbn loss is therefore possible. An approximate analysis is outlined, and transistorpeak voltage and current stres...

Analytical spectral modeling of switched-mode PWM converters, operating in the discontinuous conduction mode, is presented. The modeling approach is to derive analytical expressions of the converter output response using the extended Volterra functional series. Nonlinear frequency responses, including additional DC offset as well as significant subharmonic and higher harmonic components, due to...

This paper presents a wide range maximum power point tracker (MPPT) using fuzzy logic controller for PV sizing and efficiency improvement. The MPPT consists of a buck boost converter, controlled by a fuzzy logic. The fuzzy has two inputs and single output. Inputs are voltage and current of the PV, while the output is duty cycle for the buck boost. The MPPT effectively tracks at average 97.3% of...

The duality principle is applied to derive new single-stage power-factor-correction (PFC) voltage regulators. This paper begins with an application of duality transformation to conventional discontinuousconduction-mode buck, buck-boost and boost converters. The resulting dual converters operate in the discontinuous capacitor voltage mode. These new converters provide the same PFC property, but ...

AN approach of speed management of BLDC motor by dominant the DC link voltage of VSI (Voltage supply Inverter) is employed. This facilitates the operation of VSI at fundamental change by victimisation the electronic commutation of BLD...

This paper introduces a novel Bi-directional DC-DC converter with artificial neural network controller (ANN).Bidirectional power flow is obtained by the same power components and provides a simple, efficient, and galvanically isolated converter. In the presence of DC mains the converter operates as buck converter and charges the battery. When the DC main fails, the converter operates as boost c...

An isolated small wind turbine emulator based on a separately excited DC motor is developed to evaluate the performance of small wind turbine control strategies. The test rig consists of a 3HP separately excited DC motor coupled to a synchronous generator. A dump load is connected to the generator through a buck-boost converter controlled by a microcontroller. Wind turbine rotor and furling dyn...
