    Abstract: This study discusses the design of a discrete-time controller for self-tuning that takes into
consideration random disturbances that effect on the boost DC-DC, this controller implements the Generalized
Minimum Variance Control (GMV) with disturbance estimator. The GMV method is based on the input/output
measurements and holds the output voltage as stable as possible in spite of the parameters variations while
the disturbance estimator increases the accuracy. Finally, we verify the control method by digital simulation
to show the performance and the effectiveness of the controller added to the boost DC-DC converter.
