Experimental Implementation of New Sliding Mode Control Law applied To a DC-DC Boost Converter

The real implementation of sliding mode controllers SMCs to a DC-DC boost converter is a challenge due to the nonminimum phase behavior of these kinds of converters and the SMCs chattering problem. In this paper, new integral sliding mode control laws with linear and proposed nonlinear sliding surfaces are developed to overcome these problems. An experimental comparative study between these SMCs and the classical SMC applied for a DC-DC boost converter is presented.
