Abstract
Extensive research has been ongoing in the field of Electric Vehicle (EV) chargers. This article addresses transfer of electric power from the grid to EV and from an EV to grid, a configuration of a single-phase charger system consists of bidirectional AC-DC converter integrated with bidirectional DC-DC converter. An artificial neural network (ANN) controller is employed for controlling the charging current and voltage. ANN model produces the required duty cycle to feed the maximum power under both Grid to Vehicle(G2V) mode and Vehicle to Grid (V2G) mode. The ANN is trained for the measured battery voltages and battery current to estimate the bidirectional converter’s duty cycle. The implementation of the neural network is presented in this study, and simulation results are accomplished using Matlab/Simulink. The simulation findings support the effectiveness of the suggested control technique as well as its practicality. A comparative study is made to show the enhanced performance of the proposed controller than the conventional Proportional-Integral (PI) controller
