Abstract

AbstractThis paper proposes a new DC–DC bipolar resonance converter that combines a dual‐active‐bridge and a multi‐port resonance Buck‐Boost converter. This structure uses a resonance network between the input and output ports, which has the following advantages: it creates a constant current supply in the open‐loop mode; it keeps the current phase of the output ports constant under different loads; and it allows reversing the power from any output port by adjusting the phase shift of its switches, if the converter is connected to a DC microgrid. In this way, power can be exchanged among each of the output ports and input ports. The advantages of this converter are bidirectional power exchange, power exchange between output ports, soft switching, high efficiency, integration of transformer parasitic elements, and the modular capability to connect multiple resources at the input. Furthermore, the proposed structure of the bipolar converter has been implemented for verification purposes, and its results are presented in three modes: open loop, voltage control, and current control. Additionally, the results of different modes of power sharing and their bidirectionally are shown.
