A Simplified Model Predictive Voltage Control for Three-Phase Four-Switch Inverter-Fed PMSM Drives With Capacitor Voltage Offset Suppression and Current Ripple Reduction

This article proposes a simplified model predictive voltage control (SMPVC) method without weighting factors for three-phase four-switch inverter-fed permanent magnet synchronous motor drives to suppress the capacitor voltage offset and reduce the current ripple. In this article, the control of electromagnetic torque and magnetic flux in the model predictive torque control is transformed into the control of the voltage vector, and the capacitor voltage offset is suppressed by injecting dc component obtained by an adaptive notch filter into the phase current. On the basis, the voltage vector is taken as the only control term in cost function without the weighting factors to suppress capacitor voltage offset, thus simplifying the calculation amount in cost function. Then the simplified voltage vector synthesis method is presented to synthesize the effective voltage vector to reduce the current ripple. Using the simple sector division, the switching sequence of the voltage vector can be determined quickly. The effectiveness of the proposed SMPVC method is validated by the simulation and experiment.
