Abstract

A single-phase isolated ac-dc-dc converter with low total harmonic distortion and high power factor usually suffers from a significant ripple power at double line frequency. The inherent ripple power brings a significant low-frequency voltage ripple on the dc-link capacitor. To reduce the voltage ripple, bulky electrolytic capacitors and hardware low-pass filter are widely adopted. However, the converter becomes bulky because of large capacitor. In order to reduce the dc-link capacitance, optimal control strategies are proposed for ac-dc and dc-dc converter, respectively, in this article. First, the notch filter with current disturbance feedforward strategy (NF-CDFS) are proposed to minimize input harmonic current of ac-dc converter. Second, the feedback linearization with voltage disturbance feedforward strategy (FLVDFS) is designed to suppress the output voltage ripple of dc-dc converter based on generalized state space averaging model. With the proposed NF-CDFS plus FLVDFS control strategy, low input harmonic current and low output voltage ripple are achieved. In addition, more than about 85% of dc-link capacitance is reduced compared to conventional methods.
