Abstract: In this paper, an intelligent control strategy for DC/DC converters is proposed. The converter connects two DC busses, a high-voltage and a low-voltage bus. The control scheme is composed by a two-layer architecture, a low-level control based on the concept of sliding manifold, and high gain control, and a high-level control used to guarantee the achievement of various objectives. The proposed control strategies are based on solid mathematical arguments, with stability proofs for the non-linear case, and decision trees for parameter selection. The paper results are analyzed and discussed by using simulation at different detail levels in MATLAB/Stateflow/PowerSystem, and validated by experimental results, also considering MIL standard performance indices.
