Why our method is worth a paper#
Here I try to collect a not-complete list of reasons why our contribution is meaningful.
ensure soft-switching, ZVS (we should look also at ZCS for the rectifier);
self-sustained oscillations;
no time (angle) dependency in the control law thanks to the phase plane approach;
wide range of conversion ratios with a narrow range of operating frequencies - optimal magnetics;
…
Some open question:
How much is it important a bidirectional converter for OBC?
how feasible is this control approach with low-cost electronics?
