Comparative Analysis of Finite Control Set MPC for Voltage Source Inverter

Switching signals are generated using control techniques for operation of voltage source inverter (VSI). Each control having distinctive pros and cons that requires a trade-off to achieve desired performance of VSI system. Finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) has gained considerable interest among the researchers due to advantages such as intuitive execution of algorithm and inclusion of constraints. This paper presents a comparative analysis of FCS-MPC and classical control techniques: hysteresis current control (HCC) and linear pulse width modulation (PWM) for three phase VSI system. The controllers are developed in MATLAB/Simulink environment to investigate the system performance corresponding to change in controller parameters.
