This article briefly introduces the working principle of dual active half-bridge(DAHB) and the reasons for current mismatch at first, then describes a sensorless current sharing method for two module input-parallel output-parallel(IPOP) connected DAHB converter. This method estimates module parameters ratio by a single perturbation. The duty ratio of the module with larger parameters is compensated by a calculated correction amount according to estimated module parameter ratio. Simulations show that this estimation and compensation method can achieve sensorless current sharing well.

The isolated bidirectional converter dual active half-bridge (DAHB) DC-DC converter consists of two half bridge converters and a high frequency transformer. The DAHB converter has significant features such as high dynamic response, high voltage gain, and zero-voltage soft switching. The series parallel combination of low voltage and small capacity DC-DC converter is a typical scheme to improve the voltage and power level of the converter. However, the complexity and cost increase due to too many current sensors. In view of the current sharing problem in the power module cascaded structure, this paper employs a single phase shift-based sensorless current sharing method for input-parallel output-parallel (DAHB) connected DAHB converter. The converter is analyzed and a 500W IPOP experimental prototype with 50V input voltage and 200V output voltage under 20kHz switching frequency is implemented to verify the theoretical results. Finally, a comparative analysis is given to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed current sharing strategy.

This paper presents a dc-dc input-parallel output-parallel (IPOP) converter configuration for renewable energy integration with medium-voltage dc grids. A full-bridge zero-current-switching (FB-ZCS) converter with voltage-doubler output is proposed as the fundamental module. To achieve smooth current commutation and ZCS, the leakage inductance of transformer and a resonant capacitor across its secondary are utilized. This resonant capacitor is always charged to its full-rated capacity irrespective of converter loading and requires a dedicated charging interval resulting in duty-cycle loss. For a given leakage inductance, a large resonant capacitor is required for higher current ratings. With a single-centralized converter, these operational and design constraints result in significant duty-cycle loss, restricting the operation range. This paper proposes an IPOP configuration for high-power applications. Phase shedding at reduced loading ensures that individual modules are operated optimally. input inductance requirement in modules is reduced due to interleaving of the input current. Additionally, voltage stress across converter components and input current ripple are reduced by 50% in the proposed converter modules. Steady-state operation, modeling, current-sharing control, start-up, and shutdown of modules in the IPOP configuration are demonstrated using simulations. Experimental results on a scaled-down prototype are presented to validate its operation.

Electric Vehicles (EVs) play a significant role in the reduction of CO2 emissions and other health-threatening air pollutants Accordingly, several research studies are introduced owing to replacing conventional gasoline-powered vehicles with battery-powered EVs. However, the ultra-fast charging (UFC) of the battery pack or the rapid recharging of the battery requires specific demands, including both: the EV battery and the influence on the power grid. In this regard, advanced power electronics technologies are emerging significantly to replace the currently existing gas station infrastructures with the EV charging stations to move from conventional charging (range of hours) to UFC (range of minutes). Among these power electronics conversion systems, the DC-DC conversion stage plays an essential role in supplying energy to the EV via charging the EV's battery. Accordingly, this paper aims to present possible architectures of connecting multiple Dual Active Bridge (DAB) units as the DC-DC stage of the EV fast charger and study their Small-Signal Modeling (SSM) and their control scheme. These are, namely, input-Series output-Series (ISOS), input-Series output-parallel (ISOP), input-parallel output-parallel (IPOP), and input-paralleloutput-Series (IPOS). The control scheme for each system is studied through controlling the output filter inductor current such that the current profile is based on Reflex Charging (RC). The main contribution of this paper can be highlighted in providing generalized SSM as well as providing a generalized control approach for the input-Series input-paralleloutput-Series output-parallel (ISIP-OSOP) connection. The generalized model is verified with three different architectures. The control strategy for each architecture is studied to ensure equal power sharing, where simulation results are provided to elucidate the presented concept considering a three-module ISOS, IPOP, ISOP, and IPOS DC-DC converters.

This paper presents an analysis effort on a dualPSFB converter in IPOP configuration, examining its functional and behavioural aspects under nonideal conditions in the form of parametric asymmetries,viz., duty-ratio, transformer turns-ratio, filter and leakage inductances. The transition mechanism of individual modules into CCM and/or DCM modes as well as their power sharing characteristics amidst module asymmetry are investigated by leveraging per-unitized analytical expressions. The impact of multiple simultaneous asymmetries in the converter under open- and closed-loop settings are examined. Collectively, these analytical examinations not only uncover the parametric sensitivity on performance of the converter modules but also offer a theoretical basis to dual-PSFB operation under practical conditions. The converter analysis and expressions are validated through simulations as well as experimental verification on a laboratory dual-PSFB hardware.
