This thesis discusses the proposal of nonlinear deadbeat control for continuous conduction mode (CCM) boost converter and the experimental verification. First, the nonlinear state equation is derived, and second a nonlinear current reference deadbeat control is proposed. Third, a new nonlinear controller to implement the load disturbance compensation is proposed. Then the simulations using PSIM software and verifications by experiments, it is confirmed that under the conditions of an input voltage 12 V, an output voltage of 20 V, a load resistance of 4 Ω and a sampling frequency of 100 kHz, the voltage command tracking capability of a settling time of 280 µs is achieved, and an output voltage recovery time of 1.46 ms is achieved for a sudden unknown load change. Mathematical analysis is performed to confirm asymptotic stability and robustness of the control method during voltage and current perturbation, disturbance occurrence and parameter variations. It is found that the voltage and current errors eigen values converge towards inside of the unit circle thus maintaining asymptotic stability for each perturbation case investigated. Methods to design the controller parameters are stipulated to be within the physical realization and can be applied to boost converter of any application in CCM. The proposed control method is compared with other literature that applied different digital control methods to boost converters of various applications. It is found that nonlinear deadbeat control proposed in this thesis is about twice as fast for reference tracking response, and can reject disturbances quickly for a load current three times bigger than other literature. Therefore, it is concluded that these data are the best even though the proposed control is based on nonlinear equations. Few differences are observed between experiments and simulations. Further investigations reveal the cause to be time delay in the switching device and other unmodeled nonlinear switching device phenomena. Future work will focus on improving the control method to compensate for nonlinearities.

“…In order to improve system performance in relation to the response time without causing overshoots, which could damage the load or circuit elements, and to obtain a steadystate null error, adaptive and nonlinear controllers have being used. The Feedback Linearization, Adaptive Control, Gain Scheduling, Sliding Mode control, and State Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE), can be highlighted each with its own characteristics regarding their application or parameters such as stability, robustness, and computational cost [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. Another possibility of enhancing the system performance is the integration of two or more controllers.…”

This work presents an adaptive control that integrates two linear control strategies applied to a step-down converter: Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) and Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) controls. Considering the converter open loop transfer function and using the poles placement technique, the designs of the two controllers are set so that the operating point of the closed loop system presents the same natural frequency. With poles placement design, the overshoot problems of the LQR controller are avoided. To achieve the best performance of each controller, a hyperbolic tangent weight function is applied. The limits of the hyperbolic tangent function are defined based on the system error range. Simulation results using the Altera DSP Builder software in a MATLAB/SIMULINK environment of the proposed control schemes are presented.
