MUMBAI, India, Jan. 23 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202531096018 A) filed by National Institute Of Technology, Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, on Oct. 6, 2025, for 'pso controlled bidirectional power converter device for plug-in electric vehicle charging and discharging.'
Inventor(s) include Abhishek Kumar; Kumari Archana; and Dr. Madhu Singh.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 23, under issue no. 04/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a PSO-controlled bidirectional power converter device designed for efficient charging and discharging of Plug-In Electric Vehicles (PEVs). The system enables two-way energy flow between the vehicle battery and the electrical grid, ensuring optimal energy transfer based on battery state-of-charge (SOC), grid conditions, and load demand. By integrating real-time monitoring and intelligent control, the device minimizes energy losses, maintains stable voltage, and enhances overall system efficiency during both charging and discharging operations. The device incorporates a bidirectional DC-DC converter managed by a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) control unit, which dynamically adjusts converter parameters such as duty cycle, switching frequency, and gain coefficients. The PSO algorithm evaluates real-time system data to optimize energy flow, improve transient response, and reduce total harmonic distortion (THD), ensuring smooth operation during both Grid-to-Vehicle (G2V) and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) modes. The system includes a sensor network and a digital signal processor (DSP) interface to enable fast adaptive control and diagnostics. Intelligent power management through PSO improves battery lifespan, enhances power quality, and supports scalable integration into residential, commercial, and public EV charging infrastructures. The invention provides a reliable, energy-efficient, and grid-friendly solution for modern electric vehicle energy management."
