Abstract: This paper focuses on the control of an n-port Multi-Active Bridge, providing insights into switching sequences, a time-domain model, and an optimization algorithm concerning conduction and switching losses. Central to this analysis is the introduction of a novel concept known as winding voltage sequences, which encapsulate the switching sequences employed by the converter bridges. The algorithm proposed in this article aims to derive analytical expressions for the currents flowing through all transformer windings (and switches) for each switching sequence. This control methodology is characterized by a set of parameters—inter-leg and inter-bridge phase shifts—whose diverse values are systematically explored to attain an optimal solution.
