In this work, a robust nonlinear controller based on the uncertainty and disturbance estimator (UDE) scheme is successfully developed to tightly regulate the output voltage of the boost converter. A systematic procedure is developed to select the controller gains to achieve a satisfactory output response. Using simulation, the effectiveness of the proposed controller is validated and compared to a recent robust nonlinear controller. %K Boost Converter %K Robust Control %K Constant Power Load (CPL) %K Uncertainty and Disturbance Estimator (UDE) %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=138798
