This paper deals with the fractional modelling of
a DC-DC buck-boost converter, suitable in solarpowered
electrical generation systems, and the design
of a fractional controller for the aforementioned
switching converter. Although the modelling
and design of the controller is carried out
for this particular DC-DC converter, it can be
easily extended to other king of switching converter.
In addition, the comparison between
integer-order plant/controller and fractional-order
plants/controller is carried out. The article
also shows that, under the same design conditions,
the fractional-order controller has a better
performance and behaviour than with classical
integer-order controller in both situations, that is,
with integer-order plant and fractional-order plant
models. |
