Abstract
In this investigation, a tracking control is designed for the angular velocity of the DC/DC Boost converter–DC motor system. To this end, the dynamics of the power supply, generated through a renewable energy power source, is considered in both the mathematical model and the designed control. This latter is proposed by using a two-level hierarchical approach, where the dynamics of the DC/DC Boost converter and the one associated with the DC motor not only are treated as two independent subsystems, but also they exploit their differential flatness property. For the DC/DC Boost converter, an alternative mathematical model of first order is obtained for designing the low-level voltage control. Whereas, the well known second order mathematical model of the DC motor is used for developing the high-level angular velocity control. The robustness and performance of the hierarchical tracking control are verified via realistic numerical simulations and experimental results by using Matlab-Simulink, a prototype of the system, the DS1104 board, and the renewable energy emulator TDK-Lambda G100-17. The results demonstrate and validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
