Abstract


Warehouses serve as essential infrastructure for storing a wide array of goods and are utilized by various entities. Implementing a sophisticated warehouse management system (WMS) represents a pinnacle of technological advancement. Effective warehouse maintenance is paramount, benefiting both consumers and producers alike. Typically, warehouses store items such as medicine, chemicals, food, and electronics, requiring controlled conditions of temperature and humidity. Monitoring these factors is essential to comply with regulations and maintain internal quality standards. This paper focuses on optimizing warehouse management to meet customer demands and streamline processes for packaging and production teams. Additionally, it proposes the integration of droid technology within warehouses to monitor the parameters and mitigate fire hazards, thereby enhancing the efficiency and safety of goods storage. This proactive approach not only ensures the integrity of stored products but also contributes to cost-saving measures within the warehouse. This paper introduces an innovative method to achieve a substantial increase in voltage output in a DC-DC converter while avoiding the need for excessively high duty ratios. The converter’s operation is governed by a single pulse width modulation (PWM) signal, employing a fractional-order proportional-integral-derivative controller (FOPID) for regulating the power switch. By merging boost-forward-fly back (BFF) converter topologies, the design achieves a remarkable voltage gain. Moreover, the converter efficiently recycles energy stored in the leakage inductance of the coupled inductor, thereby reducing voltage stress and minimizing power losses and thus enhancing overall converter efficiency.
