Abstract
The output voltage regulation problem of a PWM-based dc-dc buck converter under various sources of uncertainties and disturbances is investigated in this paper via an optimized active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) approach. Aiming to practical implementation, a new reduced-order generalized proportional integral (GPI) observer is first designed to estimate the lumped (possibly time-varying) disturbances within the dc-dc circuit. By integrating the disturbance estimation information raised by the reduced-order GPI observer into the output prediction, an optimized ADRC method is developed to achieve optimized tracking performance even in the presence of disturbances and uncertainties. It is shown that the proposed controller will guarantee the rigorous stability of the closed-loop system, for any bounded uncertainties of the circuit, by appropriately choosing the observer gains and the bandwidth factor. Experimental results illustrate that the proposed control solution is characterized by improved robustness performance against various disturbances and uncertainties compared with traditional ADRC and integral model predictive control (MPC) approaches.
