SZNAIER, Member, IEEE Pennylvania State Univerity In thi paper, the mall ignal analyi of the LCC-type parallel reonant converter (LCC-PRC) operating in the continuou conduction mode i given. Thi analyi i baed on both the tate-plane diagram, which ha been uccefully ued to obtain the teady tate repone for reonant converter, and the Taylor erie expanion. Applying perturbation directly to the teady tate trajectory, a dicrete mall ignal model for the converter can be derived in term of the input voltage, witching frequency, and the converter tate variable.

Megalemo, Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Univerity of Central Florida, Orlando, FL 816, batareh@pegau.cc.ucf.edu; M. Sznaier, Electrical Engineering Department, Pennylvania State Univerity, Univerity Park, PA /96/$10.00 c 1996 IEEE To achieve the deired ytem tability, the open-loop control-to-output frequency repone i ued to analytically deign the tranfer function of the control circuit. Furthermore, the characterization of the cloed-loop mall ignal performance due to the line voltage i neceary to predetermine the open-loop line-to-output frequency repone. Depending on the complexity of the converter topology and circuit component model ued for the converter power tage, thee frequency repone may be obtained experimentally, numerically, or analytically. Experimental meaurement of the converter frequency repone become neceary when the converter power tage i known a a black box. On the other hand, if the circuit topology a well a the control technique of the converter power tage are known, then the power tage repone can be imulated numerically, thu avoiding the cotly contruction of the converter power tage. However, due to highly intenive computation, thi method i time conuming. Hence, it i worthwhile to derive the analytical olution o that exceive time and expene in the experimental approach can be avoided. It i more efficient to utilize analytical olution for the power tage repone in the ytematic deign of a control circuit. To avoid cotly contruction and debugging of converter prototype baed on the trial and error approach, analytical method to obtain the mall ignal frequency repone for dc-to-dc converter have been developed [1 4]. The analytical mall ignal frequency repone help a circuit deigner chooe a proper compenation circuit or debug the deign of the converter power tage from it teady tate characteritic o that the mall ignal frequency repone of the revied converter and the elected compenation circuit are compatible for attaining the deired ytem tability. For many year, publihed work in thi area ha been focued on the pulewidth modulation (PWM) converter [1 1]. In recent year, however, the mall ignal analyi of dc-to-dc reonant converter have been invetigated by many reearcher in thi field [1 4]. Thu far, the analyi to achieve the mall ignal behavior i limited to econd-order erie and parallel reonant converter (PRC) [1 ], with little work done on high-order reonant converter [, 4]. Thi analyi i complicated in it mathematic and obcure in it phyical inight into the converter operation due to a tringent time-domain analyi. An alternative analytical method i needed to eaily viualize the mall ignal behavior around the converter teady tate trajectory and to allow further generalization to a larger cla of reonant converter. The teady tate analye for numerou reonant converter topologie have been thoroughly invetigated in the literature.

2 converter are known and in mot cae have been repreentedbycloedtrajectorieinthetate-plane diagram [19, 1, 8 1]. Since the tate-plane diagram of reonant converter in general conit of only a few well defined imple geometric curve in the tate-plane, it i poible to develop a generalized computer program from which the frequency repone of a reonant converter can be derived once it tate-plane diagram i pecified. Hence, thi technique can be generalized to any reonant converter topology once it tate-plane trajectory i known. Moreover, by uing the tate-plane diagram approach, more phyical inight into the converter dynamic behavior can be obtained. Thi i becaue the perturbation i done graphically on the tate-plane diagram with the actual diplacement of the converter tate variable, a well a input and control parameter, being oberved. The analyi method wa firt ued to achieve the dicrete mall ignal model of the conventional erie reonant converter (SRC) and PRC under variable witching frequency control in [19] and [] repectively. In thi analyi technique, the initial perturbation on the converter tate variable, the control and ource input, were made on the tate-plane diagram to produce the perturbed tate trajectorie. Then, uing the geometrical relation between the teady tate and the perturbed trajectorie and applying the uperpoition theorem, the perturbation repone can be written a a linear combination of thoe initial perturbation. Oberving the difference between the teady-tate and the perturbed trajectorie that are contructed on the ame tate-plane, we can attain better undertanding of the converter mall ignal behavior. The dicrete mall ignal model of thee reonant converter are developed without the time-averaging of the output waveform. When the converter operate in the continuou conduction mode (CCM), the dicrete mall ignal model can correctly predict mall ignal frequency repone becaue the ame et of the perturbed tate exit at any given time and thee perturbed tate poe their continuitie throughout the converter operation. Thi technique i applied to obtain the frequency repone for the well-known LCC-type PRC. It teady tate analyi ha been thoroughly analyzed in the literature [5 8]. Once the mall ignal model of the converter i obtained, then it cloed-loop compenation can be properly deigned and imulated before actually building the converter. The teady tate analyi and the derivation of the tate-plane diagram for the LCC-type PRC i briefly dicued in Section II. Section III provide the mathematical development of the mall ignal analyi. Uing Taylor erie expanion coupled with the ymmetry in teady tate tate-plane repone, we derive the line-to-output and the control-to-output tranfer function. Conequently, the frequency repone can be computed from thee function. Fig. 1. Simplified circuit of LCC-type PRC. Since it i alway poible to decompoe any order dc-to-dc reonant converter into many decoupled two-dimenional tate-plane by uing tate-variable tranformation technique, the mall ignal analyi preented here i baed on two-dimenional tate-plane diagram [9]. By uing the tate-plane diagram approach, more phyical inight into the converter dynamic behavior can be obtained. Thi i becaue the perturbation i done graphically on the tate-plane diagram with the actual diplacement of the converter tate variable and input and control parameter oberved. To verify our theoretical work, computer imulation reult are preented in Section IV and are compared to the theoretical one. II. STEADY STATE ANALYSIS In order to analytically obtain the mall ignal repone of a reonant converter, it i neceary that it dc operating condition be known. Uing thi teady tate trajectory, a geometrical approach can be ued to derive the mall ignal frequency repone model of the converter. In thi ection, teady tate analyi that i baed on the tate-plane diagram will be briefly dicued. The objective here i to expre the teady tate parameter of the converter in term of the initial witching point of the tate-plane trajectory. Once uch expreion are obtained, then perturbation ignal on thee tate-variable parameter are injected directly into the tate-plane diagram. The idealized circuit of the LCC-type PRC (PRC-LCC) i hown in Fig. 1. The detailed teady tate analyi of the converter can be found in [6 9]. Throughout the analyi, it i aumed that the reonant circuit i lole and the witching device and diode are ideal. When the converter operate under CCM with 50% duty ratio over one witching period T, it can be hown that the effect of witching of tranitor/diode pair can be repreented by an equivalent quare wave voltage ource v (t) with magnitude +V g and V g. Moreover, auming very large L 0, the input current to the full-bridge rectifier, i E (t), may be preented by a dependent current ource of magnitude +I 0 and I 0, depending on whether BATARSEH ET AL.

From the tate-plane diagram given in Fig., it can be hown that the following relation can be obtained, i nl (t 1 )= v nc (t 0 ) In0 0 (17) Subtituting (17) into (15), the converter gain become M = 1!0 # ( 1) v nc (t 0 ) In0 0 (18) Finally, we need to expre the witching angle 1,,, and in term of the initial witching point [v nc (t 0 ),i nl (t 0 )]. Thi can be accomplihed from the tate-plane diagram given in Fig. to obtain the following relation, 1 =tan 1 i nl (t 1 )+I0 n0 v nc (t 1 ) i tan 1 nl (t 0 )+I0 n0 v nc (t 0 ) (19) + = ¼ i tan 1 nl (t 1 ) I0 n0 v nc (t 1 ) i tan 1 nl (t 0 )+I0 n0 1+v nc (t 0 ) (0) Uing (9), (19), and (0), the following functional expreion for can be obtained a follow, = [v nc (t 0 ),i nl (t 0 ),In0 0, = ] (1) For the converter deign, given =,wemay calculate In0 0, M, and once the initial witching point [v nc (t 0 ),i nl (t 0 )] i known. In the following ection, baed on the teady tate equation derived in Section II, we derive the mall ignal model by injecting perturbation to the tate-variable of the tate-plane. III. Fig. 4. Converter block diagram under line and control ignal perturbation. SMALL SIGNAL ANALYSIS A hown in Section II, when the converter repone i in teady tate, the trajectory of it tate variable form a unique cloed contour for every witching period with table dc value. However, the converter trajectory can deviate from thi unique contour due to diturbance on the line and control input. In uch a cae, the trajectory become a perturbed trajectory. Under mall ignal perturbation, the excurion of the perturbed trajectory from the teady tate trajectory can be phyically oberved on the tate-plane diagram [, ]. Phyically, the mall ignal excurion from the teady tate trajectory can be oberved a the perturbed trajectory periodically hrink and expand around the teady tate trajectory at the frequency of perturbation. Major ource of perturbation are due to the input and frequency variation.

Baed on thi model, we derive cloed-form olution for the line-to-output tranfer function H 1 () and control-to-output tranfer function H () which are defined a follow, H 1 () =ˆv 0 ˆv g H () =ˆv 0 ˆf (a) (b) In thi ection, baed on the tate-plane diagram and the generalized analyi preented in [1], the mall ignal analyi for the PRC-LCC when operated in the CCM i derived. By introducing perturbation to the converter tate variable, controlled witching frequency, and the input voltage at the beginning of a half witching period, we can obtain the perturbed repone at the beginning of the next half witching period by uing Taylor erie expanion. Baed on thi technique, a cloed form olution for H 1 () andh () i derived from which we obtain the frequency repone. BATARSEH ET AL.

5 Fig. 5. Perturbed teady tate trajectory of Fig.. Under mall ignal perturbation, we define kth and (k + 1)th a trajectorie in the firt and econd half witching cycle of the tate-plane diagram of Fig. 4, repectively, a hown in Fig. 5. Uing thi figure, the tate-variable at the end of the half witching cycle can be related to the tate-variable at the beginning of the half witching cycle, the normalized voltage V ng, and the normalized witching frequency f n.the beginning and the final normalized tate variable at the kth half witching cycle are defined a follow i nl (k) reonant current at the beginning of the kth half witching cycle, v nc (k) reonant voltage at the beginning of the kth half witching cycle, f n (k) witching frequency for the kth half witching cycle, I n0 (k) output current for the kth half witching cycle, i nl (k + 1) reonant current at the end of kth half witching cycle, v nc (k + 1) reonant voltage at the end of kth half witching cycle, I n0 (k + 1) output current for the (k +1)th half witching cycle. In thi analyi, ˆP(k) andˆp(k + 1) are defined a the perturbation vector at the teady tate turn-on intant of tranitor T 1 and T, repectively, which are defined a follow ˆP(k)=[ˆ{ nl (k)ˆv nc (k)î n0 (k)] T () ˆP(k +1)=[ˆ{ nl (k +1)ˆv nc (k +1)Î n0 (k +1)] T (4) The perturbation vector given in () and (4) repreent the perturbation repone at the end of the econd half and firt half of the witching cycle, repectively. In another word, the perturbation repone at the end of the on-time interval of tranitor T 1,ˆ{ nl (k +1), ˆv nc (k +1) andˆ{ n0 (k) are defined a the perturbation vector ˆP(k +1). Hence, the perturbation tate ˆ{ nl (k) andˆv nc (k) canbe conidered a the initial tate perturbation at the beginning of the on-time interval of tranitor T 1.The perturbation tate ˆ{ nl (t) andˆv nc (t) are continuou time function within the given half witching period. However, only ˆ{ nl (k +1) and ˆv nc (k +1) are ued a the updated perturbation for the following half witching period a hown in Fig. 5. On the other hand, the perturbation due to input voltage and output current, ˆv ng (t) andˆ{ n0 (t), are conidered to be contant within each half witching period and are updated only at the end of the half witching period. Thi i valid under the aumption that the input and output filter time contant are large a compared with the operating witching period T. Moreover, the perturbation vector ˆP(k) i aumed to be mall enough o that when applying Taylor erie expanion econd and higher order term will be neglected a i hown in the next ection. Two et of dicrete tate equation can be obtained geometrically; one from the trajectory in even portion of the witching period and the other in the odd half witching period. Thee et of tate equation can be repreented a two vector-matrix dicrete tate equation having different coefficient matrice. Since the teady tate trajectory i ymmetrical about the origin, pecial tranformation on the perturbed tate variable can be applied to both et of equation to obtain a cloed-form vector-matrix tate equation which i valid in any half witching period. Conequently, mall ignal frequency repone can be calculated from the cloed-form tate equation. The perturbation repone ˆ{ nl (k +1) and ˆv nc (k + 1) are derived by uing the geometry of the tate-plane diagram and the application of Taylor erie expanion. Thee olution can then be ued to obtain the perturbation repone ˆ{ n0 (k + 1) from the output equation which i derived from the circuit topology a hown in (5). Due to the preence of the full-bridge rectifier at the output circuit of the PRC-LCC, the output equation i 0 (t) igivenby di L 0 0 dt = jv cp (t)j i 0 R 0 (5) From (5) and the tate-plane diagram, the dicrete model for the kth half witching cycle, which i located at the firt half of the witching cycle, can be expreed a follow, i nl (k +1)=In0 l (k)+v nm in(¼ + 4 ) (6) v nc (k +1)=v ng (k)+v nm co(¼ + 4 ) (7) In0 0 (k +1)=I0 n0 (k)+ Z # 0!0 L 0 ¼ f n (k) 1 LL0!0 # V nc (k) I 0 n0 (k) ¼R 0 I0 n0 (k) L 0 f n (k) (8) 706 IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON AEROSPACE AND ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS VOL., NO.

6 In order to find a complete dicrete tate model that applie for both the firt and econd half witching cycle, new tate variable need to be defined [1] in term of the abolute value of the converter tate variable. Hence, a cloed-form olution for the upper and lower witching cycle can be obtained. It i clear from the tate-plane diagram hown in Fig. 5 that the abolute value of the tate variable mut be ued a follow y(k)=ji nl (k)j = i nl (k) =jv nc (k)j = v nc (k) y(k +1)=ji nl (k +1)j = i nl (k +1) x(k +1)=jv nc (k +1)j = v nc (k +1) Baed on thee new variable, the perturbation vector P(k) andp(k + 1) may redefined a hown in (9) and (0), repectively, Q(k)=P T 6 (k) =[y(k) In0 0 (k)] (9) Q(k +1)=P T 6 (k +1) =[y(k +1) x(k +1) In0 0 (k +1)] (0) By applying the Taylor erie expanion into the teady tate dicrete model decribed by (6) (8) and neglecting the higher order term, we obtain the repone for ŷ(k +1), ˆx(k +1), and Î n0 (k +1) a hown in (1), (), and (), repectively, ŷ(k 0 n0 (k) Î0 n0 (k) n (k) ˆf n vg (k) ˆV ng (k) (1) 0 n0 (k) Î0 n0 n (k) ˆf vg (k) ˆV ng (k) () Î 0 n0 0 n0 (k) Î0 n0 n (k) ˆf vg (k) ˆV ng (k) () The partial derivative hown in (1) () are derived in the Appendix. In a more compact form, (1) () may be repreented a follow, Q(k +1)=AQ(k)+Bˆf n (k)+cˆv ng (k) (4) where a 11 a 1 a A = 4a 1 a a 5, B = 4 a 1 a a b 1 b b 7 6 5, C = 4 c 1 c c 7 5 The coefficient of matrice A, B, andc are given in the Appendix. To find the mall ignal frequency repone of the converter, the dicrete mall ignal model of (4) need to be repreented in the frequency domain uing z-tranformation a hown in (5), Q(z)=(zI A) 1 Bˆf n (z)+(zi A) 1 CˆV ng (z) (5) The line-to-output tranfer function in the z-domain can be obtained by letting ˆf n (z) be zero in (5) to obtain H 1 ()= ˆV n0 (z) ˆV ng (z) = Q p 6 4 7!0 5 [0 0 1][zI A] 1 C where Q p i the quality factor defined by, (6) Q p = R 0 (7) Z 0 Similarly, the control-to-output tranfer function in the z-domain can be obtained by etting ˆV ng (z) tozeroin (5) and uing normalized factor a hown in (8), H ()= ˆV n0 (z) ˆf n (z) = Q p 6 4 7!0 5 [0 0 1][zI A] 1 B (8) The Bode plot, both magnitude and phae, of the line-to-output tranfer function H 1 (), and the control-to-output tranfer function H (), baed on (6) and (8), are hown in Fig. 6 and 7, repectively. IV. SIMULATION RESULTS By uing the Ppice imulation program, the frequency repone for both tranfer function are obtained to verify the theoretical work.

CONCLUSION The mall ignal analyi for the LCC-PRC operating in the CCM ha been preented. The cloed form olution of the mall ignal repone can be obtained from the tate-plane diagram with the application of Taylor erie expanion. Two related tranfer function under line and control perturbation were derived line-to-output and control-to-output tranfer function. Uing z-tranformation, frequency repone for thee two tranfer function were derived. Finally, imulated reult for the magnitude and phae repone of the tranfer function were reported and compared to verify the theoretical approach. It wa hown that the imulated reult are in good agreement with the theoretical reult, epecially at low frequencie. Since accurate knowledge of the tranfer function i more critical cloe to the cro-over frequency (i.e., for magnitude cloe to one), the relatively high error at high frequencie poe no problem.
