Summary: | This paper exhibits a passivity-based robust output voltage controller for DC/DC boost converters for wind power system applications. The proposed technique has two features. The first one is to introduce a nonlinear disturbance observer for estimating the disturbances arising from the load and parameter variations. The second one is to derive a proportional-type passivity-based output voltage tracking controller incorporating the disturbance observer output, which simplifies the control algorithm by removing the use of tracking error integrators and an anti-windup algorithm. These two features constitute the useful closed-loop properties called the performance recovery and offset-free properties. Numerical simulation results confirm the efficacy of the proposed scheme, where a wind power system including the proposed controller is emulated using the PowerSIM software. |
