Analysis of a Boost Converter with Partial Power Processing for Solar Energy Harvesting Article uri icon

abstract

  • This paper presents the analysis of an interleaved boost converter with partial power processing, which is designed for solar energy harvesting. The advantages of this topology, which combines high energy efficiency, improved conversion for low voltages, and increased power density. The operation of the converter on different time intervals within a switching period are described. Additionally, an average model and a numerical analysis of partial power processing using the Volt-Amperes area modeling technique are presented, demonstrating the benefits of this structure compared to a conventional Boost converter.
