An asymmetric duty ratio plus phase lead-in hybrid control method
By using a hybrid control method combining asymmetric duty cycle and internal phase shift, the internal phase shift ratio of the primary side full bridge and the duty cycle of the secondary side switching transistors in the dual active bridge DC/DC converter are controlled, solving the power backflow problem under light load and improving the converter efficiency and the simplicity of the control strategy.

AI Technical Summary
In dual active bridge converters, power backflow occurs under light load, leading to reduced converter efficiency and increased power device losses. Existing control methods have varying performance under different operating conditions, and the backflow power is relatively large when the voltage ratio deviates from 1, which limits the implementation range of soft switching.
An asymmetric duty cycle plus internal phase shift hybrid control method is adopted. By controlling the internal phase shift ratio D0 of the primary full-bridge and the forward duty cycle D of the secondary switch, and using given constraints and voltage ratio range, D0 and D are calculated and selected to control the direction and magnitude of power transmission, ensuring that the return power is zero.
It effectively reduces return current power under light load conditions, improves the efficiency of dual active bridge converters, simplifies control strategies, and enhances circuit efficiency.
