Abstract
This paper focuses on a comparative study of a reduced order linear quadratic regulator control (ROLQR) and conventional variable frequency hysteresis controller (HC) for power factor correction, and their performances are compared. A prototype of front-end AC–DC converter followed by DC–DC Cuk converter controlled by a dSPACE signal processor was set up for 60 watts. Experimental results are presented to validate the simulation results. Simulation and experimental results reveal that ROLQR control can achieve good output voltage regulation and also provide improved robustness in shaping the input current in the presence of load variations when compared to conventional HC.
