Abstract

This paper presents the modeling and control of a non-minimum phase dc-dc boost converter based on the three - state switching cells. In any double stage grid-connected system the converter forms an interface between the photovoltaic source and the inverter. As the control and regulation of the converter output is a vital part of penetration of renewable to grid, therefore, this paper had attempted the control of a converter topology that can reduce the current stress across its switches. But the system becomes highly unstable and complex which has been validated by predicting the limit cycle with a describing function. The Controller design is implemented after reducing the complexity of the system using the Model order reduction principle. H-inf controller being robust in nature is applied for stable and regulated output.
