US Patent 10050534 Systems and methods for self-adaptive current control

The present disclosure relates to electric converters and methods of controlling the same. One dual-active-bridge direct current to direct current (DC-DC) converter includes a transformer having a primary winding and a secondary winding, a first H-bridge connected to the primary winding, a second H-bridge connected to the secondary winding, and a current sensor structured to measure a current of the transformer. The first H-bridge includes a plurality of switch devices. The second H-bridge includes a plurality of switch devices. The dual-active-bridge DC-DC converter further includes a controller configured to control an on/off state for each of the plurality of switch devices of the first H-bridge and the plurality of switch devices of the second H-bridge based at least in part on the current of the transformer measured by the current sensor.
