Sliding mode control for high voltage gain DC-DC converter in renewable energy systems

Sliding mode controller (SMC) is implemented for a switched capacitor converter (SCC) aimed at achieving robust and efficient power regulation.SCC converters offer advantages such as high efficiency, small size, and reduced component count, making them suitable for various applications includes Electronic filters, Wireless sensor networks, DC micro-grids, Electric vehicles, Battery-operated Internet of Things (IoT) applications.However, their operation is highly nonlinear, susceptible to parameter variations, and subject to switching noise.To address these challenges, this paper proposes an SMC approach, leveraging the robustness and fast response characteristics of sliding mode control.The controller design focuses on regulating the output voltage while ensuring stability and minimizing the effects of disturbances and uncertainties.The simulation outcomes affirm the efficacy of the suggested SMC in achieving precise and resilient regulation across diverse operating scenarios, thereby confirming its suitability for real-world deployment in SCC converters.
