The sliding surface of the sliding mode controller is designed such that the behavior of the controlled PWM inverter system is optimal, subject to the defined cost function.

Although the spectral modifications that are associated with chaotic operation may provide an important motivation for actual operation in this regime, the literature on chaos in power electronics has tended to treat it more as an exotic effect than as a feasible mode of operation. This may explain why no prior work has attempted-for the chaotic regime-to characterize even the most basic property of DC-DC power converters, namely the input-output gain (which is the ratio of the average output voltage to the DC input voltage). The present paper shows how to compute this gain, and other averages of interest, for the chaotic regime of buck, boost, and buck-boost power converters under constant-frequency current-mode control and in continuous conduction. The authors' approach invokes the fact that the chaotic sampled inductor current is ergodic, hence governed by a \"probability\" density, which permits time averages to be replaced by ensemble averages. Although the density can be computed in detail, it turns out that approximating it (quite crudely) as a uniform density still yields very good results. In contrast, traditional computations based on the nominal (and unstable) periodic solution can be considerably in error.","PeriodicalId":19979,"journal":{"name":"PESC Record. 27th Annual IEEE Power Electronics Specialists Conference","volume":"83 1","pages":"1477-1483 vol.2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84252197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multiple control laws are designed previously with respect to some defined operating points (grid-points). A parameter subspace associated with each grid-point can then be derived. The main idea is that the specified operation space is partitioned into small subspaces characterized by the grid-points, so that any disturbances can be localized to be small signals within a particular subspace. By switching the control law based on the associated grid-point best representing the actual operation, the operation range of the regulated converter is widened and the transient behavior is improved. Simulation results have shown its merit when large-signal disturbances are present in output load and input voltage.","PeriodicalId":19979,"journal":{"name":"PESC Record. 27th Annual IEEE Power Electronics Specialists Conference","volume":"63 1","pages":"1494-1498 vol.2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84335125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This differs from a conventional short pitched machine in that the fully pitched machine develops torque as a result of interactions between the two windings, as opposed to changes in self inductance of the individual windings. This form of winding gives rise to some unusual drive requirements, in particular continuous direct current in one winding, which offer potential benefits in the component count and ratings of the drive electronics. An experimental motor has been constructed along with a number of power converters. Experimental results for the different converters are presented and their relative merits discussed.","PeriodicalId":19979,"journal":{"name":"PESC Record. 27th Annual IEEE Power Electronics Specialists Conference","volume":"53 1","pages":"1798-1803 vol.2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86880901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
