This paper presents the design considerations and the implementation of a cd-cd buck-boost converte, which can process the energy transferred from the ultra capacitors (UC) bank and batteries to the load (motor drive system of an Electric Vehicle EV). The UC bank is used as auxiliary source to supply the motor drive system which allows recovering the energy generated during the regenerative breaking;...
This paper presents a feedback linearization based controller design methodology for a unified power flow controller (UPFC) to achieve rapid reference signal tracking in the internal level. Feedback linearization control (FBLC) is a nonlinear technique based on differential geometry theory and overcomes the drawback of traditional PI control linearzing at one specific operating condition. FBLC is...
The problem of regulating the output voltage of DC-to-DC series resonant converters (SRC) is addressed. The difficulty is threefold: (i) the converter model involves discontinuous and highly nonlinear terms and is, further, controlled through a modulating frequency signal; (ii) all state variables are not accessible to measurements; (iii) the load is uncertain and may even be varying. An output feedback...
This paper presents a performance analysis of wind-powered self-excited induction generator (SEIG) and a vector-controlled pulse-width modulation (PWM) converter. Three-phase voltage-source converters are the building blocks of a great number of power electronic systems. The origin of difficulties in the control of the above converters is in their nonlinear nature. The PWM current control technique...
Conventional PWM voltage mode or current mode control techniques are commonly used in practice for controlling switched-capacitor converters. However, such control methods are only useful for applications involving small operating regions. This paper discusses the application of nonlinear control in the form of sliding mode control on switched-capacitor converters. The result is an enlarged operating...
