Comparison of Current Control Techniques for Single-Phase Integrated On-Board Chargers

In recent years, due to high rise in deployment of electric vehicles in markets, battery chargers are high in demands. Chargers are generally of two types: on-board and off-board chargers. But in addition to above, in recent years integrated chargers have gained popularity amongst researchers in which the same motor and it's associated converter are used for both propulsion and charging modes. In this paper, comparative analysis has been done for different fixed switching frequency current controllers for single-phase integrated chargers. This control strategies are validated using simulations studies conducted using MATLAB/Simulink.
