Abstract

A variable switching frequency modulation for the Dual Active Bridge (DAB) converter is proposed in this paper. With this variable switching frequency modulation, the DAB converter can be operated in the ZVS-beneficial operational modes without the necessity to transition to others, thus a larger ZVS range for the DAB converter can be achieved. This modulation has potential of providing higher power efficiency and better EMI performance for the DAB converter in wide voltage range applications such as Electric Vehicle (EV) charging. A DAB converter with the variable frequency modulation method is simulated, and its effectiveness on the ZVS performance is demonstrated.
