Voltage Control Based on a Back-Propagation Artificial Neural Network Algorithm

Abstract

In this paper a voltage controller based on an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is presented. Its online learning back-propagation algorithm allows the output voltage regulation according to a desired reference output voltage. To verify that the proposed controller operates according to the design, a numerical verification in Matlab software is presented for three basic DC-DC converters: buck, boost and buck-boost topologies.
