ABSTRACT

In this chapter, we will continue our discussion from the previous chapter on the SM control design for power converters with a nonlinear sliding manifold. However, here, the discussion will be focused on how a reduced-state sliding manifold may be used for the control of a high-order converter like the C´uk converter. Unlike a full-state SM controller, which exercises full control over
