Model predictive direct torque control (MPTC) is the emerging control technique in the field of electric drives. Compared to conventional DTC it's very accurate in voltage vector selection as well yields lower torque ripples by using the system model. The concept of duty cycle is merged along with it to improve the efficiency. The null vector is employed along with the selected voltage vector. The...
In this work, a Back to Back converter based on a Diode Clamped Multilevel topology is presented. Both converters are controlled using model predictive approach. The control objective of the front-end converter is the DC bus voltage regulation with sinusoidal current and unity power factor, while the load converter drives an induction motor through predictive direct torque control. Both algorithms...
Predictive direct torque control for a three-level neutral point clamped inverter is proposed. The main differences between standard direct torque control and the proposed approach are the flexibility and simple algorithm implementation, which does not require complex predefined switching tables nor logic to select among them, as standard direct torque control requires. The dynamic performance is...
This work compares the use of direct torque and flux control (DTFC) and model predictive control (MPC) for induction motor (IM) control. These two strategies are fundamentally different in operation since (i) DTFC decides the current control action based on a switching table constructed using a simplified model of the IM, whereas (ii) MPC decides the current control action by on-line minimization...
Model Predictive Direct Torque Control (MPDTC) is a recent computational control methodology that combines the merits of Model Predictive Control (MPC) with the ones of Direct Torque Control (DTC). Specifically, with respect to standard DTC, the converter's switching frequency and/or losses are considerably reduced, while at the same time the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) levels of the phase currents...
For medium-voltage drives Model Predictive Direct Torque Control (MPDTC) significantly reduces the switching losses and/or the harmonic distortions of the torque and stator currents, when compared to standard schemes such as direct torque control or pulse width modulation. Extending the prediction horizon in MPDTC further improves the performance. At the same time the computational burden is greatly...
This paper describes a fast torque control system of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) based on model predictive control (MPC) considering overmodulation region of inverter. In overmodulation region, output voltage of inverter contains harmonic voltage which influences performance of current control and can't be avoided. To consider influences of harmonic voltage, we use a harmonic voltage...
This paper presents a generalized Model Predictive Direct Torque Control scheme with an extended horizon, which is composed of multiple hinges (groups of switch transitions) linked by several extrapolation segments. The controller's performance is further enhanced by minimizing the switching losses in the inverter. Initial results suggest that with respect to state of the art Direct Torque Control,...
This paper describes a fast torque control system of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) based on model predictive control (MPC). This torque controller selects directly one of the voltage vector of voltage source PWM inverter considering voltage saturation explicitly. To obtain the fast torque response at the transient state and the stable current response at the steady state, the problem with...
This document describes the implementation of the model predictive direct torque control (MPDTC) algorithm for the control of three-phase induction motor drives comprising a three-level dc-link inverter with an output LC filter. As the filter introduces delays in the system, the motor torque and flux are no longer directly controllable. Therefore the inverter torque and flux are introduced and the...
This paper describes the implementation of the model predictive direct torque control (MPDTC) algorithm for the control of three-phase induction motor drives comprising a three-level DC-link inverter. The MPDTC scheme is designed to keep the motor torque and stator flux and the inverter's neutral point potential within given hysteresis bounds while reducing the average switching frequency of the inverter,...
