The DC converter control for deceleration profile in energy recovery from landing aircraft

This paper discuss about the H^∞control strategy for DC converter in the energy recovery from landing aircraft. The energy from landing aircraft can be changed to electrical energy by using several power electronics converters combine with the linear generator. To have this effect the controllers must able to control the mechanical and electrical outputs. The mechanical outputs are such as the force, speed of the linear generator while the electrical outputs are the voltage and current. By using the H^∞ control strategy at the specific location especially at the converter side it hopes that all the outputs stated above can be controlled. The goals for this paper are to maintain the dc voltage value at the converter and to have constant deceleration speed and force at the linear generator in order to change the kinetic energy from landing aircraft to electrical energy. All the models and the simulations have been done in MATLAB software package.
