Modeling and implementation of a new boost converter with elimination of right‐half ‐plan zero

Abstract

Summary Conventional boost converters used for fuel‐cell applications suffer from a slow dynamic response, due to their non‐minimum phase nature. It is the main challengeable problem in the development of boost topologies working in continuous‐conduction mode (CCM). In order to eliminate the mentioned disadvantage, a boost converter is proposed in this article which is capable to give a high voltage gain. From viewpoint of the boosting feature, the proposed topology is more appropriate to connect a low input voltage to a higher dc voltage of load. Moreover, the duty‐cycle‐to‐output‐voltage transfer function of this converter is free from the right‐half‐plane zero (RHPZ) and therefore, its dynamics are simpler and faster compared with the classical boost converter. To cancel the RHPZ, improve the dynamic behavior and enhance the voltage transfer gain, a separate forward path is provided using a transformer and an additional capacitor in the output node for transferring the input energy to the output load during the switch‐on time interval of the power switch. For derivation of the converter model, the steady state analysis is given in details and the required equations are formulated. The transfer function expression is obtained using the averaging model of the converter and then, the description and comparisons are introduced to reveal the features and superiority of the proposed converter. Also, a laboratory set‐up of the suggested dc/dc boost converter working in CCM is built and tested.

Analysis and circuit design of isolated forward SEPIC converter with minimum-phase stability

“…A wellknown method is to use a converter with no RHP zero, instead of an expensive controller. Therefore, several nonisolated topologies have been introduced in recent years with no RHP zero in their dynamics, such as tristate converter (Kapat et al, 2009), KY converters (Hwu and Yau, 2009), diode-capacitorbased converter (Zhang et al, 2017b), third-order converter (Veerachary, 2018) and coupled-inductor converters (Restrepo et al, 2011;Singh and Mishra, 2013;Gu et al, 2015;Garg et al, 2016;Liu and Zhang, 2017;Kumar et al, 2020;Goudarzian et al, 2020aGoudarzian et al, , 2020bGoudarzian et al, , 2021Goudarzian, 2022Goudarzian, , 2023b. However, the maximum voltage gain of some converters is small.…”

Boundary-Based Hybrid Control Algorithm for Switched Boost Converter Operating in CCM and DCM

“…The internal model control (IMC) scheme is implemented for such system and compared with the proportional integral derivative (PID) controller in [21]. The elimination of RHP zero is shown in [22]. As the switched boost converter exhibit NMP, inverse response is apparent, which makes controlling of boost converter even more complicated.…”
