     A BSTRACT  

    The electronic domain is highly nonlinear, hence it is valuable to study the nonlinear effect particularly the

    chaos and bifurcation. The present paper deals with the simulative analysis of nonlinear dynamics in the

    boost converter with the help of bifurcation diagrams. In this brief communication, the current through

    inductor (I  L) was considered as state variable and reference current (I  REF ) was considered as a controlled

    variable. The capacitor value was varied from 1 µ f to 50 µ f while the other parameter was kept unaltered. It

    was observed that, as the value of capacitor was increased, the corresponding period- 1 bifurcation,

     period- 2 bifurcations, and period- 3 bifurcations points were shifted in incremental order. It was also

    observed that period- 2 bifurcations, and period- 3 bifurcations points were vanished with an increasing

    capacitor value (C) and supply voltage (V  IN ).

    1.INTRODUCTION

    The nonlinear dynamics has many applications and hence it is widely investigated in many fields

    of science and engineering domains. The nonlinearity depends on all state variables of physicalsystem. The nonlinearity produces a chaos which is due to initial condition problems and

    sensitivity to these conditions. The first kind of nonlinearity and particularly chaotic effect was

    observed to the Henri Poincaré on celestial mechanics around 1900 [1]. In 1963 Lorenz gave anidea that simple nonlinear systems can have complex, chaotic behaviour in his seminal researchpaper ‘Deterministic Non-periodic Flow’ [1]. The electronics’ field is very dynamic hence it is

    valuable to study nonlinear effect for better understanding of the subject.

    The Van der Pol first of all shows that the nonlinear dynamic behaviours in the field of

    electronics [2]. Soon after, many researchers found out the nonlinear effect such as bifurcation

    and chaos in many electronic circuits topologies. The power converters got a lot of attentionbetween all of them. In 1980, Ballieul et al gave the idea about chaotic behaviour in DC-DCconverter [3]. Parui et al give the idea of bifurcations in the boost converter [4]. Deane et al

    emphasized their studies on instability, sub-harmonics and chaos in power electronic systems [5].Chan et al showed the quasi-periodicity to period-doubling bifurcations in the boost converter [6].

    Dongale et al shows the chaotic behaviour of boost converter using bifurcation diagram [7]. Lu etal studied the bifurcation phenomena in parallel-connected boost converter system [8]. L. Chua’s

    et al work on nonlinear circuits (Chua’s Circuit) based on capacitor and diode which is very

    famous in electronics today [9]. The Chua’s diode is now famous with the name ‘Memristor’ [10-14].

    The boost converter is also known as step up converter whose primary aim is to increase theaverage output voltage higher than input voltage or supply voltage [15-17]. The present paperinvestigated the chaotic effect in the boost converter with the help of bifurcation diagram. This

    work is aims to study the stability of the system using bifurcation diagram. Rest of paper is

    portrayed as follows, after brief introduction in the first section, the second section deals with

    introduction of chaos and bifurcation. Third section describes the working of boost converter. Thefourth section deals with the chaos and bifurcation analysis. At the end results are reported.

    2.NONLINEAR DYNAMICS

    The study of nonlinear dynamics has come into game when Newton invented the differential

    equations. He solved the classical two body problems with the help of differential equations, but

    the classical three body problems cannot be solved with the help of Newton’s numerical method.The breakthrough came when Poincaré found that celestial mechanics for highly nonlinear

    systems [18].

    The Bifurcation theory was introduced by Henri Poincare and chaos theory was proposed byEdward Lorenz. The chaos is occurs due to the initial condition problem and discreteness of statevariables. The chaos is a very robust phenomenon and a few years ago it was treated as only

    noise. The major breakthrough came when Edward Lorenz model the weather and formulate the

     Butterfly Effect . The butterfly effect says that if we make small change in any of the state variable

    of system then it is impossible to predict the final outcome of system i.e. small variation canbecome a large diversion [19]. Bifurcation phenomenon has two types, first is smooth bifurcation

    phenomenon and other is border collision bifurcation phenomenon [7, 20].

    Each of the bifurcations may give rise to a distinct route to chaos if the bifurcations appearrepeatedly upon changing the bifurcation parameter [21]. In the state control space, the place at

    which bifurcations occur are called bifurcation points [19]. Many times, it is possible to predict

    the system stability with the help of equilibrium, periodic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic behaviorsof bifurcations diagrams. The present paper was aimed to find out system stability with the help

    of bifurcations diagrams. In the present study, bifurcation diagram for Inductor Current (IL) withreference current (IREF) are plotted. The inductor (IL) current worked as a state variable and the

    reference current (IREF) is worked as a controlled variable [7]. The effects on stability by means ofvariation of capacitor value are depicted for each case. The period- 1, 2 and 3 bifurcations points

    are shown by solid lines in the figure 2 to 5 respectively. The linear and steady-state performanceof converters and electric controls were investigated by conventional means [22-31], but

    nonlinear aspects and dynamic behaviour of converter was not studied and examined at its large. 

    3.BOOST CONVERTER

    The boost converter regulates the average output voltage to higher than input voltage or supply

    voltage hence it is known as step up DC-DC converter or DC amplifier. The typical DC to DCboost converter is shown in fig. 1. The output voltage of boost converter is controlled bycontrolling the duty cycle of MOSFET. The boost converter increases the magnitude of output

    voltage by using energy storing principle in the inductor and capacitor. These lumped circuit

    components are responsible for the nonlinear dynamic behaviour in the boost converter. Thedetailed working of boost converter can be found in the reference [7].

    5.RESULT AND DISCUSSION

    In this study, the chaotic effect of boost converter was investigated by means of bifurcationdiagram. Table 2 represents the relationship between period-bifurcation and corresponding effect

    on controlled variable IREF and state variable IL with variations of capacitor value (1µf to 50µf)

    and supply voltage (VIN= 5V to 20V). Over the period- 1 bifurcation point, inductor current (I L)having single unique value for turn on the switch. For period- 2 bifurcations there are two valuesof inductor current (IL) to turn on the switch. As we go further, the system undergoes stable

    period-3 operation, and eventually becomes chaotic.

    It is clearly seen from fig. 2 to fig. 5 and table 2, that single stage boost converter degrades itsstability at low voltage and at low value of capacitor. It is clearly shown from fig. 2-5 that

    bifurcation points are shifted in increment order as we increase the value of capacitor and itbecome chaotic after period- 3 bifurcations in each case. The simulation results of boost converter

    also showed that the existence of only one stable point at higher value of capacitor (C) and higher

    valve of supply voltage (VIN). The period- 3 bifurcation vanishes from 20 µf and the period- 2bifurcation vanishes from 30 µf. In this case, region above the period-3 bifurcation is a chaoticregion for the boost converter.
