The inductor sizes required by both topologies are selected based upon the core geometrical constant design method. It is found out that the PWM -resonant converter offers a significant reduction in the required inductor size. The efficiency measurements are made in simulation by modeling the lossy elements and the simulation results show that the conventional boost converter has a better efficiency characteristic. The dynamic responses of both converters are also compared under closed-loop control and the PWM-resonant converter shows a faster transient regime with lower overshoots. © 2018 IEEE.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessboost type converterefficiencyinductor sizePWM-resonant converterzero-current switchingConference Object10.1109/ISMSIT.2018.85672892-s2.0-85060811917N/A
