A novel control method with soft switching without additional voltage stress for bidirectional full-bridge converters

In this study, the pulse width modulation (PWM) technique is discussed in detail, necessary explanations for switching, hard switching and soft switching expressions are made, the techniques performed with the snubber cell used in soft switching are discussed, the sample PWM simulated with the advanced soft switching techniques in the literature. The operating principles, operating ranges and simulation results of DC-DC converters were evaluated, the advantages and disadvantages were evaluated, the theoretical analysis of the two-way full-bridge DC-DC converter controlled by the proposed new control method was made and the advantages of the proposed control method were emphasized and the simulation results were presented. The capabilities gained by the converter are explained.
