Super-twisting Algorithm Based Sliding Mode Controlled Boost Converter
Abstract: This work provides analysis of boost converter with super-twisting algorithm under sliding mode operating in continuous conduction mode. The super-twisting algorithm reduces the chattering effect which is inherent in conventional sliding mode control. Generally, chattering increases heat losses, thereby decreasing the performance of the boost converter. The aforementioned control strategy minimizes the initial current peak and provides highly improved output voltage regulation irrespective of the input voltage perturbation and load …
