This paper presents a robust control design approach for current self-controlled power factor correction (PFC) boost converters. Lyapunov stability theory is applied to assess the closed-loop stability and performance under large load variations and vanishing input voltage disturbances. A differential-algebraic representation of the closed-loop system is considered to derive a convex optimization problem in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI) constraints to tune the controller parameters. Numerical simulations demonstrate the potentials of the proposed approach for tuning current self-controlled PFC boost converters subject to large load variations.
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.
