A new analysis and design method for fuzzy logic controllers used in power converter
This paper proposes a novel design procedure of fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for DC-to-DC converters that integrates linear control techniques with fuzzy logic. The design procedure allows the small signal model of power converters and linear control design techniques to be used in the initial stages of FLC design. This simplifies the small signal design and the stability assessment of the FLC. By exploiting the fuzzy logic structure of the controller, heuristic knowledge is incorporated into the design, resulting in a non-linear controller with improved large signal performance over linear PI controllers
