Control Design for Electronic Power Converters

TL;DRAbstract

A lot of research has recently been focused on converters due to the increasing deal of interest in power electronics. This is mainly caused by their broad applicability domain that includes battery-operating portable equipment, computers, appliances, vehicles, industrial electronic equipment, uninterruptible power supplies, telecommunication systems and much more. This current research is specially focused on finding highly-efficient converter topologies for every system application and, on designing control mechanisms that accomplishes the converter objectives. Among all variety of converters, this thesis is focused on providing a control solution for two converters topologies, which have some interesting properties and applications. The converters that will be dealt with are: firstly, a switch inverter topology; and secondly, a DC-DC converter for low power application. The first application is focused on controlling an SMPC boost inverter. This converter is particularly interesting
