The control performance of the finite control set model predictive current control (FCS-MPCC) for the interior permanent magnet synchronous machine (IPMSM) depends on the accuracy of the mathematical model. A novel robust model predictive current control method based on error compensation is proposed in order to reduce the parameter sensitivity and improve the current control robustness. In this method, the equivalent parameters are obtained from the known voltage and current information at the past time and the error between the predicted current and the actual current at the present time, which is utilized in the two-step prediction process to compensate the parameter mismatch error. Finally, the optimal voltage vector is selected by the cost function. The proposed method is compared with the traditional model predictive current control method through experiments. The experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A speed tracking control method for induction machine is shown in this paper. The method consists of outer speed control loop and inner current control loop. Model predictive current control method without the need for calculation of the weighing factors is utilized for the inner control loop, which generates a continuous set of voltage reference values that can be modulated and applied by the inverter to the induction machine. Interesting parallels are drawn between the developed method and state feedback principles that helped with the analysis of the stability and controllability. Simple speed and rotor flux estimator is implemented that helps achieve sensorless control. Simulation is conducted and the method shows great performance for speed tracking in a steady state, and during transients as well. Additionally, compared to the finite control set predictive current control, it shows less harmonic content in the generated torque on the rotor shaft.

Finite-control-set model predictive current control (FCS-MPCC) has been widely investigated in the field of motor control. When the discrete motor prediction model is not obtained accurately, prediction error often occurs, which can result in improper determinations of optimal voltage vectors and can further affect the control performance of motor systems. However, papers evaluating the motor control performance employing FCS-MPCC rarely consider prediction error and its utilization to weaken the influence of inaccurate prediction model. This paper investigates in depth the prediction error caused by three influencing factors from the perspective of model accuracy—discretization method, prediction stepsize, and parameter mismatch. Firstly, the evaluation index, prediction error, is defined and its formulas considering the above three factors are derived based on interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). Then, the theoretical analysis of prediction error is provided. Finally, experimental results of an IPMSM drive system are presented to verify and complement the theoretical analysis. Both the theoretical analysis and experimental results fully elaborate the prediction error, which can offer practical guidelines for the evaluation and improvement of motor control performance, especially for FCS-MPCC in IPMSM applications.

In order to improve the dynamics of the surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motors (SPMSM) used in servo systems, finite control set model predictive current control (FCS-MPCC) methods have been widely adopted. However, because the FCS-MPCC is a model-based strategy, its performance highly depends on the machine parameters, such as the winding resistance, inductance and flux linkage. Unfortunately, the parameter mismatch problem is common due to the measurement precision and environmental impacts (e.g., temperature). To enhance the robustness of the SPMSM FCS-MPCC systems, this paper proposes a Lundberg perturbation observer that is seldom used in the FCS model predictive control situations to remove the adverse effects caused by resistance and inductance mismatch. Firstly, the system model is established, and the FCS-MPCC mechanism is illustrated. Based on the machine model, the sensitivity of the control algorithm to the parameter mismatch is discussed. Then, the Luenberger perturbation observer that can estimate the general disturbance arising from the parameter uncertainties is developed, and the stability of the observer is analyzed by using the discrete pole assignment technique. Finally, the proposed disturbance observer is incorporated into the FCS-MPCC prediction plant model for real-time compensation. Both simulation and experiments are conducted on a three-phase SPMSM, verifying that the proposed strategy has marked control performance and strong robustness.

<span>This paper represents a test of a modified algorithm to minimize the cost function in the traditional finite control-set model predictive current control (FCS-MPC) to control the (five-leg) DC voltage input inverter. A Matlab/Simulink description of a system presents a certain deviation limits between the reference and the actual measured phase currents, also the model implements a load current limitation. The algorithm picks out a proper switching state, which makes the lower error value between the wanted and the prognosticated currents; the proposed technique sets the chosen switching state as a driving signal to the ten switches. The modified program eliminates the switching combination with error values above the requested ones. Thereafter the system response enhanced by lowering the overshoots. The rigidness of the model is examined by using a step change in reference signals.</span>

Inverters are commonly controlled to generate AC current and Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is the core index in judging the control effect. In this paper, a THD oriented Finite Control Set Model Predictive Control (FCS MPC) scheme is proposed for the single-phase inverter, where a optimization problem is solved to obtain the switching law for realization. Different from the traditional cost function, which focuses on the instantaneous deviation of amplitude between predictive current and its reference, we redesign a cost function that is the linear combination of the current fundamental tracking error, instantaneous THD value and DC component in one fundamental cycle (for 50 Hz, it is 0.02 s). Iterative method is developed for rapid calculation of this cost function. By choosing a switching state from a FCS to minimize the cost function, a FCS MPC is finally constructed. Simulation results in Matlab/Simulink and experimental results on rapid control prototype platform show the effect of this method. Analyses illustrate that, by choosing suitable weight of the cost function, the performance of this THD oriented FCS MPC method is better than the traditional one.
