Abstract

In this paper, an optimal synergetic controller based on a bat algorithm for a DC-DC boost converter is presented. DC-DC boost converters are some of the most widely used power electronics devices for their high conversion efficiency and versatility. Bat optimisation based on the echolocation behaviour of bats, a bio-inspired algorithm, is successfully used for synergetic parameters optimization. The proposed control scheme is evaluated in a simulation and implementation study of a boost converter indicating satisfactory overall performance with stability insured through Lyapunov synthesis. Experimental results show that the proposed control provides good regulation.
