dc.descriptionSliding-mode control (SMC) has been successfully applied to boost inverters, which solves the tracking problem of imposing sinusoidal behavior to the output voltage despite the coupled or decoupled operation of both boost cells in the converter. Most of the results reported in the literature were obtained using the conventional cascade-control structure involving outer loops that generate references for one or two sliding surfaces defined using linear combinations of inductor currents and capacitor voltages. As expected, all proposed methods share the inherent robustness and insensitivity to the uncertainties of SMC, which are the reasons why one of the few comparison criteria between them is the simplicity of their implementation that is evaluated according to the required measurements and mathematical operations. Furthermore, the slight differences between the obtained dynamic performances do not allow a clear distinction of the best solution. This study presents a new SMC approach applied to a boost inverter in which two boost cells are independently commutated. Each of these boost cells integrates an outer loop, enforcing the tracking of harmonic-enriched waveforms to the capacitor voltage. Although this approach increases by two the number of measurements and requires multiloop controllers, it allows effective alleviation of the semiconductor voltage stress by reducing the required voltage gain. A complete analytical study using harmonic balance technique allows deducing a simplified model allowing to obtain a PI controller valid into to the whole set of operation conditions. The several simulation results completely verified the potential of the control proposal and the accuracy of the employed methods.
