Proportional-Derivative Voltage Control With Active Damping for DC/DC Boost Converters via Current Sensorless Approach

摘要

This brief presents an advanced proportional-derivative (PD) voltage control mechanism for DC/DC boost converters suffering from the parameter and load variations. The proposed controller eliminates the requirement for current feedback by designing the first-order observer estimating the voltage derivative without the use of converter parameters, which corresponds to the first contribution. As another contribution, a specific feedback gain structure for PD-loop and the active damping component guarantees the first-order closed-loop transfer function from the reference to the output voltage by the stable pole-zero cancellation. A prototype bi-directional 3-kW boost converter experimentally validates the closed-loop performance of the proposed technique.
