Discontinuous output regulation for a DC-to-AC boost converter

This work presents the design of a discontinuous output regulator for a DC-to-AC power conversion problem on a boost converter, for asymptotic output trajectory tracking. The steady state reference signal for the inductor current is proposed as an approximated solution of the well known Francis-Isidori-Byrnes equations, then, by a proper selection of a sliding surface one can stabilize the non-minimum phase inductor current tracking variable. Finally, by means of numerical simulations one verifies the performance of the proposed control strategy.
