Robust H∞ Control for PWM Boost Converters Subject to Aging Capacitor Conditions

LMI robust control design for boost PWM converters

This work presents an analytical study and an experimental verification of a robust control design based on a linear matrix inequalities (LMI) framework for boost regulators. With the proposed LMI method, nonlinearities and uncertainties are modelled as a convex polytope. Thus, the LMI constraints permit to robustly guarantee a certain perturbation rejection level and a region of pole location....

Robust Control Methodologies For dc/dc PWM Converters Under Wide Changes in Operating Conditions

In this paper, a comparative study on the subject of robust control of dc/dc PWM converters is presented. Considering a wide range of possible changes for the converter’s operating conditions, robust control of dc/dc PWM converters using some state of the art robust controllers i.e., ∞ H , μ , and fuzzy controllers is studied. The system under study is a CUK converter as a non-linear, variable ...

Unified Robust Zero-Error Tracking Control of CVCF PWM Converters

This paper proposes a unified robust zero-error tracking control scheme for constant-voltage-constant-frequency (CVCF) PWM converters to eliminate the tracking error in the presence. Based on the internal model principle, the proposed control scheme plugs a reference signal generator into the stable conventional feedback closed-loop system to accomplish zero error tracking of the dc or ac refer...

LMI Robust Control of PWM Converters: An Output-Feedback Approach

Buck-Boost PWM Converters Having Two Independently Controlled Switches

1 This work is supported by Philips Research, Briarcliff Manor, NY, through Colorado Power Electronics Center Abstract – Single-switch step-up/step-down converters, such as the buck-boost, SEPIC and Cuk, have relatively high voltage and current stresses on components compared to the buck or the boost converter. A buck-boost converter with two independently controlled switches can work as a boos...
