AbstractIn this paper, parallel interconnection of DC/DC converters is considered. For this topology of converters feeding a common load, it has been recently shown that dynamics related to voltage regulation can be completely separated from the current distribution without considering frequency separation arguments, which inevitably limits achievable performance. Within the Hamiltonian framework, this paper shows that this separation between current distribution and voltage regulation is linked to the energy conservative quantities: the Casimir functions. Furthermore, a robust control law is given in this framework to get around the fact that the load might be unknown. In this paper, we also ensure that the system converges to the optimal current repartition, without requiring explicit expression of the optimal locus. Finally, resulting control law efficiency is assessed through experimental results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
