By designing a robust control, for the first time in literature, the tracking task associated with the MIMO DC/DC Boost converter-inverter-DC motor system is solved. Such robustness is achieved through the exploitation of the differential flatness property related to the system and by a suitable design of auxiliary controls. With the aim of verifying the performance of the robust control, a platform of the system along with MATLAB-Simulink and a DS1104 board are used. The experimental results show the good performance of the system in closed-loop even when electrical abrupt changes are considered in some parameters of the Boost converter and when a mechanical load perturbation is applied.INDEX TERMS Motor drives, power converters, MIMO systems, DC/DC Boost converter, inverter, DC motor, trajectory tracking task, differential flatness.
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.
