Optimal PI Parameters Tuning for a DC-DC Boost Converter
Abstract
This paper designs a nonlinear PI-type controller for the robust control of a boost DC-DC converter using a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for increasing the output voltage of the photovoltaic (PV) system. In addition, the PI controller is used to tracking the maximum power from the PV panel, at different atmospheric condition. For tuning PI controllers is a tedious work and it is difficult to tune the PI gains optimally due to the nonlinearity. This paper presents an approach to use the particle swarm optimization algorithm to design the optimal PI controllers. The Simulations results show that the proposed controller exhibits better behavior in terms of settling time and overshoot and better performance of the converter
