A passivity control and developed nonlinear disturbance observer for boost converter with constant power load in DC microgrid

This paper presents an adaptive nonlinear control scheme to ensure the stability of a boost converter in a DC microgrid that supplies a constant power load (CPL) and a resistive load. The proposed controller comprises a passivity-based control (PBC) and a Nonlinear Disturbance Observer-Based Robust Control (NDOBRC). The PBC guarantees the overall stability of the proposed controller, whereas the NDOBRC compensates for various sources of disturbances and uncertainties in the system, such as CPL power. The large-signal stability of the PBC is established using the Lyapunov function. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller in terms of superior performance compared to the PI method.
