This paper proposes a methodology to design the auxiliary inductances of a bidirectional three-port DC-DC converter, which allows minimize the currents through the high frequency transformer and switches. In this way, RMS ...

The growing interest in integrating distributed generation into the existing power distribution grid, the increase in the penetration levels of renewables, as well as the need to achieve a more efficient, reliable, and ...

Improvements in the total current ripple in interleaved power converters are mainly determined by differences between the phase inductor values. Several methods have been presented in the literature to mitigate this problem, ...

This paper proposes a thorough methodology for the steady-state characterization of input and output current ripples in Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) interleaved power converters, under inductance mismatch. The ...

In this paper, a control strategy for an isolated DCDC dual active bridge converter to adapt different voltage levels in a DC microgrid is proposed. The control strategy allows regulating the output voltage while maintaining ...

The main objective of this research work is to develop a new low-cost isolated three-level ac-dc power converter topology with a reduced number of switches. Existing three-level converter topologies change ac power to dc ...

This paper presents a feedback/feed-forward control strategy to improve the voltage balancing of modular multilevel converters (MMCs) under unbalanced grid conditions. The inclusion of a feed-forward compensation improves ...

Multiphase power converters allow to reduce semiconductor stress and to improve total ripple characteristics, when compared to a single-phase converter. Semiconductor stress is reduced by dividing the total current among ...
