The adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) has shown exponential growth in recent years, with expectations for further development in the years to come. With such significant expansion, efforts and incentives are shifting from EV sales to projects aimed at expanding charging station infrastructure. In order to sustain this growing trend, a reliable and robust charging infrastructure is needed. However, the entire process of planning, designing, and constructing fixed charging stations (FCSs) is time-consuming and expensive. In this scenario, mobile charging stations (MCSs) offer a complementary solution to ensure the necessary reliability for the improvement of EV owners’ experiences in the electrified transportation sector, as they help reduce range anxiety, peak-hour costs, and waiting times. In this sense, this paper aims to disseminate the state-of-the-art research and studies on MCSs, covering topics such as architectures, standards, converter topologies, and market solutions.

This article presents modelling and control strategies to the non-isolated Boost DC-DC converter using voltage lift technique proposed by Shahir [1], which have not been developed until the present moment. Thus, the performance of the converter is evaluated when using different topologies of controllers: Integrative (I), Proportional-Integrative (PI), Proportional-Integral-Derivative with additional pole $(\mathbf{PID}+\mathbf{p})$ and a combination of PID, PD ² and three additional poles $(\mathbf{PID}+\mathbf{PD}^{2}+\boldsymbol{3}\mathbf{p})$ . Steps and insights are provided for selecting, designing and validating the controllers. The results shows the effectiveness of each controller under four different scenarios: step change of load, voltage reference and input voltage, also evaluating measurement noise rejection capability.
