Final Year Project

Project Title

Controller Designing of Hardware-based Converter

Description

The capstone demonstrates my interest in power electronics and control theory. The motivation for selecting this project was to implement a controller on the already existing hardware of a converter. Furthermore, the field of electric vehicles is developing to shift towards green energy. To reduce carbon footprints, regulation of output voltage of converters is important to minimize errors and reject external disturbances. The project becomes more fascinating due to the additional parasitic components required for achieving a real-life model that can be implemented through the state-space representation to first perform Hardware-in-Loop and then implement the complete hardware setup. FPGA-in-Loop implementation was a new domain of exploration for us because we had to make our simulation to be real-time, which is complex yet interesting.
