Abstract

The DC-DC converters are one of the important components of the renewable energy systems. In this study, meta-heuristic-based intelligent control schemes are applied, such as, proportional-integrator (PI), proportional-derivative (PD) and proportional-integrator-derivative (PID) control. The gain parameters of the PID controlled DC-DC buck or step-down converter is optimized with the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm. The obtained results indicate that PID control is better than the others.
