切換式整流器已逐漸被用為許多電力電子設備之前級轉換器，而降-升壓切換式整流器具有許多特點及特殊應用場合，因此，本論文旨在於從事降-升壓切換式整流器之研製及其動態控制。首先了解功因校正控制之基本事務、控制方式及常用規範。接著概覽切換式整流器之ㄧ些實用事務，包括其分類、可能電路之比較特性及控制機構等。尤其探究各型降-升壓切換式整流器之組成特性及其應用例。
眾所周知，爲使所開發之電力電子電路兼具低成本及強健操控特性，其組成元件額定之妥適決定係非常重要者。本論文先從事理想切換式整流器之元件額定推導及評定，接著修正此推導結果，在考慮切換頻率漣波成分下，得到實際切換式整流器組成元件額定之準確估算。然後依據此結果設計所研習切換式整流器之組成元件。並以一些電磁暫態程式(ElectroMagnetic Transients Program, EMTP)模擬及實驗結果確認所推導結果之正確性，以及顯示所組立切換式整流器之性能。
在動態控制方面，電流及電壓控制迴路各自之比例積分迴授控制器先依所欲之控制要求妥善予以設計。接著為增進系統對抗不確定動態、參數及工作狀況變化以及擾動等之強健性，再輔加一簡單之強健控制架構。所提強健控制器關鍵參數之決定折衷考量了控制性能、雜訊干擾效應及非線性行為之影響。本論文所提控制技巧之有效性及所研製切換式整流器之操控性能均以一些模擬及實測結果予以驗證。

Switch-mode rectifier (SMR) has been gradually employed as a front-end stage of various power electronic equipments. And the buck-boost SMR possesses many distinguished features and specific applications. Thus this thesis is mainly concerned with the development of a buck-boost SMR and its dynamic control. First, the fundamentals of power factor correction issues and control approaches are reviewed, and some commonly referred standards are surveyed. Then the overview of practical issues for SMRs is made, including the classifications and comparative features of possible SMR circuits and control schemes. Particularly, the circuit configurations, features and applications of various types of buck-boost SMRs are explored.

As generally recognized, the proper rating determination for power converter circuit components is very important to yield the circuit with cost-effective and robust operation. In this thesis, the component rating derivation and assessment of an ideal SMR are first made. Then the derivation is modified to accurately estimate the component ratings of an actual buck-boost SMR considering the switching frequency ripples. According to the derived results, the constituted components of the studied SMR are designed. Some simulated results using ElectroMagnetic Transients Program (EMTP) and measured results are provided to confirm the correctness of the derived formulas and to demonstrate the performance of the established SMR.

As to the dynamic control, in both of the current and voltage control schemes, the proportional-plus-integral (PI) feedback controller is first properly designed according to its control requirements. Then it is augmented with a simple robust control scheme to increase the robustness against the system uncertainties, the parameter and operating condition changes and the disturbances. In performing the robust controller design, its key parameters are determined taking into account the compromise between the control performance, the effects of contaminated noises and the nonlinear behaviors. Validity of the proposed control approach and the performance of the developed SMR are confirmed by some simulation and experimental results.
