 Abstract
 In this dissertation, we propose a Lyapunov function based control scheme for a single-switch isolated converter. A single-switch isolated converter can be designed to operate either in the discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) or in the continuous conduction mode (CCM). Naturally, a single-switch isolated converter operating in di erent modes results in di erent dynamics. When it operates in CCM, it su ers from nonminimum phase behavior due to the occurrence of right-half-plane zeros in its transfer function. When it operates in DCM, it experiences low system gain. Thus, it is di - cult to stabilize the isolated converter operating only in CCM, and both in DCM and CCM. With regard to control design of the single-switch isolated converter, the small signal model around a xed operating point has been popular due to its simplicity. However, linearized model cannot re ect the complete dynamic behavior of the single-switch isolated converter particularly under large perturbations from the operating point. For this reason, it shows poor transient response under large-signal perturbation. Therefore, a nonlinear controller should be developed that does not require any linearization process in case of large-signal perturbation. The Lyapunov function based control strategy, which usually o ers a solution that guarantees global asymptotic stability under large perturbations from the operating point. In constructing the controller, we rst derive the large-signal nonlinear dynamic model of the single-switch isolated converter using averaged state-space modeling technique considering the parasitic components. After that, we develop the duty-ratio feedforward control part and use it to derive the error dynamics. The resulting error dy namic model is then used to develop the Lyapunov function based feedback controller. The proposed control scheme consists of two components: the duty-ratio feedforward control term that helps the output voltage to track the reference voltage, and the Lyapunov function based feedback control term that drives the closed-loop system to become globally exponentially stable. The control system guarantees global exponential stability of the closed-loop system and provides fast transient response under largesignal perturbations. Numerical simulations con rmed its superior performance, and experimental tests validated the proposed control approach.
