Sliding mode control for DC-AC converter

The aim of this study is to design a sliding mode controller (SMC) for DC-AC converter to track the desired AC voltage under load variation. In order to design the controller, a set of differential equations describing the plant need to be established to obtain state-space equation of the system. Th...
