Dynamical Analysis of a Fractional-Order Boost Converter with Fractional-Order Memristive Load.

In this paper, a boost converter emulator with a memristive load instead of a resistive load is proposed, and a fractional-order model of the memristive boost converter is created. Firstly, the fractional-order models of the memristor and the memristive boost converter are established respectively, and then based on different switching states, the circuit equations of the fractional-order memristive boost converter operating in continuous conduction mode are derived. Secondly, the dynamic characteristics of the fractional-order system are analyzed by numerical simulations and are compared with the integer-order memristive boost converter. Furthermore, the effects of the memristive load on the system is studied by comparing it to the traditional boost converter with resistive load. The results indicate that the fractional-order memristive boost converter can exhibit rich dynamic behavior by adjusting bifurcation parameters, and the fractional-order circuit system expands the stable working regions of the integer-order circuit system. Meanwhile, the addition of the memristive load significantly widens the normal working regions. Finally, simulations of the fractional-order system circuit based on PSIM further verify the correctness of the theoretical analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
