Linearized Minimum Current Stress Modulation Scheme of Single-Phase Bidirectional DAB AC–DC Converters

Abstract

In this paper, the detailed steps for the derivation of linearized minimum current stress (LMCS) modulation scheme for single-phase bidirectional and isolated dual active bridge (DAB) ac-dc converters is presented. In order to reduce the current stress of the converter, a Lagrange multiplier method (LMM) scheme is designed to obtain the control coordinates constraint on the minimum value of the current stress. Compared with the conventional minimum current stress (MCS) control scheme, the proposed scheme realizes the linearization of power control, which significantly reduces the complexity of the controller algorithm. Moreover, the synchronous inverter control applied to the back-stage full-bridge is designed. Thus, the single stage power conversion is realized and the converter topology is electrolytic capacitorless, which promote the improvement of system reliability and power density. The impact of the ZVS scheme is analyzed in detail, and the adaptive-ZVS scheme for less system loss is selected. Finally, experimental results confirm the validity and feasibility of the proposed control scheme.
