Data‐driven Buck converter model identification method with missing outputs

Abstract

AbstractA data‐driven Buck converter model identification method is proposed to deal with missing (incomplete) outputs, which is robust to the data length and percentage of missing data. A nuclear norm based convex optimization problem instead of linear interpolation, to guarantee the recovered missing data satisfying the potential model structured low‐rank character, is constructed to estimate missing outputs. The alternating direction method of multiplier strategy is used to solve the nuclear norm based convex optimization problem. In this way, the high‐quality missing data can be estimated, even for short data length and high percentage of missing data. Based on the recovered data, the subspace identification method provides accurate estimates of the structure and parameter of the Buck converter synchronously. By applying the proposed method to a Buck converter, experimental results demonstrate its effectiveness.
