Bidirectional Dc to Dc converter with ann controller for hybrid electric vehicle

Abstract

A bidirectional chopper (BDC) is the one which can interface main source (HVS), auxiliary source (LVS) and a DC-Bus voltage at different levels which is implemented in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV). This converter operation is of two modes namely dual source powering mode and energy re generation mode along with power flow control in both the directions. And also the independent power flow control across two sources (i.e. the dual source buck-boost mode). The operation, closed loop control of artificial neural network (ANN) and the comparison between PI and ANN control are provided in simulation results.
