Design of PSO Based KY Boost Converter to Reduce Output Ripple Voltage

Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to reduce the output ripple voltage and settling time of KY Boost converter.
This converter operates under continuous transmission form with small output volt swell in the sequence of few
mV, quick transient response and settling time gaining larger voltage conversion ratio. In this paper, particle
swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) tuned PI controller is proposed to reduce the output ripple voltage further
and achieve rapid settling time when compared to the PI and PID controllers. The simulated results are
executed in MATLAB/SIMULINK showing that there is a considerable reduction in output voltage ripple in the
order of mV along with quick settling time as compared to the existing system.
