description Compared with the traditional power transformer, the cascaded PET has various functions, which integrates the functions of voltage conversion, high-frequency electrical isolation, flexible power flow control and AC/ DC power interface. In order to improve the transmission efficiency and power density of cascaded PET, it is necessary to reduce the voltage ripple of the DC sides in PET. The input stage and output stage of cascaded PET are modeled separately, and the ripple characteristics of DC side are analyzed. Compared with PI controller, PIR controller has higher gain at 100Hz is investigated. A coordinated control strategy of cascaded PET based on capacitance minimization is proposed. The input stage of PET is controlled by the traditional decoupling control method, and the output stage is controlled by phase-shift control method with PIR controller. The effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed strategy are verified by experiments. The results demonstrate that the voltage ripple can be reduced to 1/4 of the original. Within the boundary of the specified ripple, DC side capacitance can be reduced to 1/4 of the original.
