To reduce current stress and improve efficiency of dual active bridge (DAB) dc-dc converters, various control schemes have been proposed in recent decades. Most control schemes for directly minimizing power losses from power loss modeling analysis and optimization aspect of the adopted converter are too difficult and complicated to implement in real-time digital microcontrollers. Thus, this paper focuses on a simple solution to reduce current stress and improve the efficiency of the adopted DAB converter. However, traditional current-stress-optimized (CSO) schemes have some drawbacks, such as inductance dependency and an additional load-current sensor. In this paper, a simple CSO scheme with a unified phase-shift (UPS) control, which can be equivalent to the existing conventional phase-shift controls, is proposed for DAB dc-dc converters to realize current stress optimization. The simple CSO scheme can overcome those drawbacks of traditional CSO schemes, gain the minimum current stress, and improve efficiency. Then, a comparison of single-phase-shift (SPS) control, simple CSO scheme with dual-phase-shift (CSO-DPS) control, simple CSO scheme with extended-phase-shift (CSO-EPS) control, and simple CSO scheme with UPS (CSO-UPS) control is analyzed in detail. Finally, experimental results verify the excellent performance of the proposed CSO-UPS control scheme and the correctness of theoretical analysis.
