Abstract

This paper proposes a bidirectional buck boost converter, which minimizes ripples in the input current and output voltage. This leads to reduce size of passive components with higher efficiency and more reliable system. An improved hybrid electric vehicle includes an internal combustion engine and an electric motor. The motor is operable as a generator to charge the batteries as needed and also for regenerative braking. The motor operates at significantly lower currents and higher voltages than conventionally and has a rated power at least equal to that of the internal combustion engine. In this manner a cost efficient vehicle is provided, suffering no performance disadvantage compared to conventional vehicles.
