Abstract
A comparative analysis between the characteristics of a buck converter driven by pulse-width modulation and a buck half-wave zero-current switching quasi-resonant converter driven by pulse-frequency modulation for application in the power supply systems of the unmanned aerial vehicles is presented. All the characteristics are obtained both analytically by dint of a generalized method for commutation processes calculation in high-frequency switched-mode power supply converters and numerically by dint of simulation in MATLAB Simulink, and coincide each other that is proof of adequacy. The essential advantages of the quasi-resonant converter as a part of autonomous voltage invertor, which are consisting in a wider regulation range of output voltage, a lower output voltage ripple and in more near-to-linear output characteristic, are shown.
