Controllable Electric Vehicle Fast Charging Approach Based on Multi-Stage Charging Current Methodology

This paper expresses a developed Electric Vehicle (EV) fast-charging control system based on multi-stage charging current methodology. The controller does not require a current sensor or any compensation circuit as in the current mode control (CMC) and the voltage mode control (VMC). The proposed controller drives the EV charging current to a predetermined value throughout an enhancement in the closed-loop feedback controller based on the duty cycle. A required duty cycle is anticipated through the design and analysis of the switched-mode DC-DC parasitic buck-boost converter supplied from Renewable Energy Sources (RESs) and has been represented as a variable DC supply. In this paper, the validity of the proposed controller has been studied by three main scenarios using the MATLAB/Simulink computer program. The scenarios proved the fast speed response and accuracy of the investigated controller.
