Abstract: Due to the nonlinear and nonminimum phase characteristics of the buck-boost converter, the design of its controller has always been a challenging problem. In this paper, a multi-index feedback linearization control strategy is proposed to design the controller of the buck-boost converter. Firstly, by constructing an appropriate output function, the original nonlinear system is mapped into a combination of a linear subsystem and a nonlinear subsystem. Then, according to the structural characteristics of these two subsystems, the linear optimal control theory is adopted for the control design of the linear subsystem to make it have a good output performance, while for the nonlinear subsystem, the coefficient of the output function is adjusted to ensure its stability. Finally, based on the Hartman–Grobman theorem, the internal mechanism and coefficient adjustment basis of the proposed method are revealed; that is, by adjusting the coefficient of the output function and the feedback coefficient of the linear control law, the poles of the system are configured to achieve the purpose of adjusting the static and dynamic performance of the system. The simulation results show the feasibility and superiority of using the multi-index feedback linearization control strategy to design the nonlinear control law of the buck-boost converter.
