Abstract

A diode clamp mixed three-level dual-active full-bridge converter based on a dual active full-bridge converter, an additional control variable is added by replacing two-level bridge arm on the primary side with a diode clamp three-level bridge arm. A control method based on four variables including duty ratios of 0 voltage level and high voltage level of the primary side, duty ratio of 0 voltage level of the secondary side of the diode clamp mixed three-level dual active full-bridge converter, and phase shift ratio between primary and secondary sides of the diode clamp mixed three-level DAB converter; four-degree-of-freedom globally optimized control is realized by coordinating four variables, RMS value of the current is reduced, and operating efficiency of the converter is improved. Closed-loop control of the DAB globally optimized operation is given, which enables the converter to automatically realize globally optimized operation under different operating conditions.
