Model predictive current control (MPCC) has recently become a viable alternative for multiphase electric drives, because it easily exploits the inherent advantages of multi-phase machines. However, the prediction in MPCC requires a high number of voltage vectors (VVs), being therefore computationally demanding. In that regard, this paper proposes a computationally efficient MPCC of an asymmetrical six-phase induction machine drive (ASIMD) that reduces the number of VVs used for prediction. By using the characteristics of the deadbeat control (DB), the proposed method obtains a reference voltage vector (RVV), where its position will serve as a reference and integrates the MPCC scheme. Only 4 out of 13 predictions are needed to determine the best VV, dramatically reducing the algorithm computation. Experimental results for a six-phase case study compare the standard MPCC with the suggested method, confirming that deadbeat model predictive current control (DB-MPCC) shows that the execution time can be shortened by 48.8% and successfully improve the motor performance and efficiency.
