[0011] Obtain the current value and voltage value of the resonant network module, and denote them as i 1 and u p ;

[0012] Obtain the output current of the rectifying network module, and denote it as i 2, obtain the resistance of the load connected to the rectifier network module, denoted as R;

[0018] Among them, R s is the series resistance value of the inductance and the line in the resonant network module, C is the capacitance of the low-pass filter in the low-pass filter module, u o is the output voltage of the low-pass filter module, sgn(u p ) is the sign function, and when u p is greater than 0, the value of this sign function is 1; when u p is less than 0, the value of this sign function is -1; when u p is equal to 0, the value of this sign function is 0.

[0019] 5. A method for controlling an LC resonant converter according to claim 4, characterized in that when the LC resonant converter is disturbed, the process of obtaining each state variable in the resonant network module according to the disturbance signal received by the LC resonant converter includes:

[0020] When the LC resonant converter is disturbed, the fundamental wave of the input voltage u AB of the LC resonant converter is equivalent to a corresponding frequency modulation signal, and the disturbance signal received by the LC resonant converter is obtained;

[0021] When the disturbance signal received by the LC resonant converter is a low-frequency small signal, the corresponding frequency modulation signal is a superposition of a sinusoidal signal and a cosine signal with a time-varying amplitude;

[0022] According to the frequency modulation signal, obtain each state variable in the resonant network module, then

[0023] i 1 = i s sinw s t + i c cosw s t

[0024] u p = u ps sinω s t + u pc cosω s t;

[0025] where i s is the amplitude of the sine component of the current of the resonant network module, and i c is the amplitude of the cosine component of the current of the resonant network module, and u ps is the amplitude of the sine component of the current of the resonant network module, and u pc is the amplitude of the cosine component of the current of the resonant network module, and ω s is the switching angular frequency of the switching device in the switching network module.

[0030] where is the amplitude of the fundamental component of the input-side voltage, and d is the duty cycle of the switching device in the switching network module;

[0031] u AB is the input voltage of the LC resonant converter. The state variables in the resonant network module and u AB are sinusoidal quantities with the same frequency. Therefore, if u AB is expanded into a Fourier series, only the fundamental component is the effective excitation of the resonant network module, and the remaining higher harmonics are attenuated by the resonant network module;

[0032] Furthermore, it can be known that the rectifier network module and the low-pass filter module correspond to the load effect of the resonant network module. Then, the voltage value u p of the resonant network module with the switching frequency is denoted as sgn(u p ), where:

[0033]

[0034] Since the low-pass filter module transmits energy depending on the DC component of the electric energy, u 2 is a full-wave rectified waveform. After being expanded into a Fourier series, its DC component is an effective excitation signal for the low-pass filter module. Then:

[0035]

[0036] Further, the process of obtaining the steady-state solutions corresponding to the state equations of the LC resonant converter in the steady state includes:

[0037] When the perturbation signal is a small-amplitude low-frequency signal, that is, when the frequency of the perturbation signal is much lower than the switching frequency, relative to the switching frequency, the perturbation signal is a quantity that changes very slowly. Therefore, the entire LC resonant converter can be considered a quasi-steady-state system. The above-described DC terms, DC components, and the coefficients of the sine and cosine components are made equal, and let That is:

[0038]

[0039] Then in the steady state, the steady-state quantities of each state variable are obtained, and the obtained steady-state quantities are constants. In the steady state, the increment of each state variable is 0, that is:

[0040]

[0041] According to the obtained steady-state quantities, the steady-state solutions of each state equation are obtained, that is:

This method has high accuracy and can establish an equivalent circuit model of the converter in continuous time. In addition, this method does not require circuit simulation analysis, and only the steady-state signal under the action of the non-modulated signal needs to be known.

[0055] Step S3: Obtain the steady-state solutions corresponding to the state equations of the LC resonant converter in the steady state.

[0056] It should be further noted that in the specific implementation process, the LC resonant converter includes a switching network module, a resonant network module, a transformer module, a rectifying network module, a low-pass filtering module, and a load.

[0063] Obtain the turns ratio of the transformer module, denoted as N.

[0064] It should be further noted that in the specific implementation process, the state equations of each part obtained according to the obtained basic parameters include:

[0065]

[0066] Among them, R s is the series resistance value of the inductance and the line in the resonant network module, C is the capacitance of the low-pass filter in the low-pass filter module, u o is the output voltage of the low-pass filter module, sgn(u p ) is the sign function, and when u p is greater than 0, the value of this sign function is 1; when u p is less than 0, the value of this sign function is -1; when u p is equal to 0, the value of this sign function is 0.

[0067] It should be further noted that in the specific implementation process, when the LC resonant converter is disturbed, the process of obtaining each state variable in the resonant network module according to the disturbance signal received by the LC resonant converter includes:

[0068] When the LC resonant converter is disturbed, the fundamental wave of the input voltage u AB of the LC resonant converter is equivalent to the corresponding frequency-modulated signal, and the disturbance signal received by the LC resonant converter is obtained;

[0069] When the disturbance signal received by the LC resonant converter is a low-frequency small signal, the corresponding frequency-modulated signal is a superposition of a sine signal and a cosine signal with a time-varying amplitude;

[0070] It should be further noted that in the specific implementation process, because the frequency of the disturbance signal is much lower than the switching frequency of the switching network module, within a high-frequency period, it can be considered that the amplitudes of the sine signal and the cosine signal are constant;

[0071] According to the frequency-modulated signal, obtain each state variable in the resonant network module, then

[0072] i 1= i s sin w s t + i c cos w s t

[0073] u p = u ps sin w s t + u pc cos w s t;

[0074] where i s is the amplitude of the sine component of the current of the resonant network module, and i c is the amplitude of the cosine component of the current of the resonant network module, and u ps is the amplitude of the sine component of the current of the resonant network module, and u pc is the amplitude of the cosine component of the current of the resonant network module, and w s is the switching angular frequency of the switching tube in the switching network module;

[0080] u AB is the input voltage of the LC resonant converter. The state variables in the resonant network module and u AB are sinusoidal quantities with the same frequency. Therefore, if u AB is expanded into a Fourier series, only the fundamental component is the effective excitation of the resonant network module, and the remaining higher harmonics are attenuated by the resonant network module;

[0081] Furthermore, it can be known that the load effects of the rectifier network module and the low-pass filter module on the resonant network module can be represented by a square-wave signal with a frequency of the switching frequency. Then, the voltage value u p of the resonant network module with a frequency of the switching frequency is denoted as sgn(u p ), where:

[0082]

[0083] Since the low-pass filter module transmits energy relying on the direct current (or average value) of electric energy, thus u 2 is a full-wave rectified waveform. After expanding it into a Fourier series, its DC component is an effective excitation signal for the low-pass filter module, then:

[0084]

[0085] It should be further noted that in the specific implementation process, the process of obtaining the steady-state solutions corresponding to the state equations of the LC resonant converter in the steady state includes:

[0086] When the perturbation signal is a small-amplitude low-frequency signal and the frequency of the perturbation signal is much lower than the switching frequency, relative to the switching frequency, the perturbation signal is a quantity that changes very slowly. Therefore, the entire LC resonant converter can be considered as a quasi-steady-state system. The above-mentioned DC term, DC component, and the coefficients of the sine and cosine components are made equal respectively to obtain the description. Let That is:

[0087]

[0088] Then in the steady state, the steady-state quantities of each state variable are obtained, and the obtained steady-state quantities are constants. In the steady state, the increment of each state variable is 0, that is:
