Modeling and virtual simulation of the boost chopper by DCM using the optimal PIDF control

Abstract

This work introduces an improved method for modeling and simulating the Boost Converter utilizing Duty Cycle Modulation (DCM) regulated by an optimum PIDF (Proportional-Integral-Derivative with Filter) regulator. We optimized the characteristic parameters of the PIDF regulator for a second-order system generated from its transfer function by using a mix of theoretical study and simulation using the Matlab/LQR tool. The conventional PID parameters in the time domain were converted into their corresponding LQR (Linear Quadratic Regulator) counterparts, allowing for the solution of the Riccati problem and the creation of an optimum state trajectory model. The results of analog virtual simulations done in a Multisim environment indicate that the system has improved dependability. It maintains a high level of accuracy in a stable condition, with no static error and a reaction time of 1.5 ms, without any overshooting. The effectiveness of the optimum PIDF control in regulating the DCM Boost Converter is highlighted by the system's strong ability to handle changes in load during transient states within a time frame of 300 ms. This study represents a substantial enhancement compared to conventional PID-based approaches, providing valuable knowledge about the possible uses in power electronics and control systems.
