In this paper, a buck-boost converter is used to design and implement a power supply for intelligent airport lighting system applications. Innovative approaches to power supply design are required to meet the increasing demand for fault detection solutions for lighting systems in vital infrastructure such as airports. The buck-boost converter’s ability to step up or down input voltage levels makes it particularly well suited to this application, ensuring stable operation over a range of load conditions. With a fast-settling time of 26 ms at 6.1 V input and dropping to 6 ms at 22.4 V input, the power supply offers exceptional output stability. The output stabilizes steadily at 5 V with low ripple over a wide input voltage range (5 V to 23 V). The physical prototype, simulations, component selection and circuit design are all carefully tested and supported by experimental results. According to these results, the proposed converter-based power unit operates with stability and reliability, making it ideal for demanding lighting applications. By improving power stability in dynamic environments, this work improves the reliability of aviation infrastructure power systems and lays the groundwork for future advances in intelligent airport technologies.
