A comparative study of controllers used for Interleaved Double Dual Boost Converter

摘要

This paper intends to compare controllers used for non-isolated (transformer less) interleaved double dual boost (IDDB) converter which provide high voltage gain and can be used for high-power applications. A control subsystem is required to improve dynamic behaviour of converter and to have a better output response. In most cases small signal model of converter is obtained which are linearized at an operating point to derive a controller which cannot take uncertainties into consideration. Robust control and Nonlinear control methods are probably areas which can handle uncertainties and non-linearities effectively. Conventional linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller cannot assure stability if system is highly uncertain. A convex model of converter dynamics is obtained taking uncertainties into account. To apply LQR control in uncertain converter case linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are used to optimize the performance index. A comparative study of LMI-LQR control, LQR Controller and PID controller is done.
