Parameter Tuning for Buck Converters Using Genetic Algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
The buck converter is one of DC/DC converters that are often used as power supplies. This paper presents parameter tuning methods to obtain circuit element values for the buck converter to minimize the output voltage variation under load changing environments. The conventional method using the concept of the phase margin is extended to have optimal phase margin that gives slightly improved performance in the output voltage response. For this, the phase margin becomes the tuning parameter that is optimized with the genetic algorithm. Next, the circuit element values are directly considered as the tuning parameters and optimized using the genetic algorithm to have very improved performance in the output voltage control of the buck converter.

Efficient and Robust Parameter Tuning for Heuristic Algorithms
The main advantage of heuristic or metaheuristic algorithms compared to exact optimization methods is their ability in handling large-scale instances within a reasonable time, albeit at the expense of losing a guarantee for achieving the optimal solution. Therefore, metaheuristic techniques are appropriate choices for solving NP-hard problems to near optimality. Since the parameters of heuristi...

متن کاملTuning Shape Parameter of Radial Basis Functions in Zooming Images using Genetic Algorithm
Image zooming is one of the current issues of image processing where maintaining the quality and structure of the zoomed image is important. To zoom an image, it is necessary that the extra pixels be placed in the data of the image. Adding the data to the image must be consistent with the texture in the image and not to create artificial blocks. In this study, the required pixels are estimated ...
