Summary:This work presents the analysis and design of bridgeless Cuk-derived DC-DC converter for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) charge transfer as onboard charger. Vehicle-to-Vehicle charging aids in mitigating range anxiety. The converter is designed to operate in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) thereby reducing the control complexity. The converter has reduced component count making the charger lightweight. Also, the voltage stress of the Cuk-derived DC-DC converter is less compared to conventional Cuk converter. The converter efficiency is high due to low switching losses. This article describes the complete steady state analysis and converter design. Further to validate the analysis, design, and applicability of the converter for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) charge transfer, PSIM simulation and laboratory-based hardware prototype results are provided.
