This paper presents an improved continuous control set model predictive control (CCS-MPC) scheme using a fuzzy logic approach (FLA) for three-phase constant voltage constant frequency (CVCF) inverters with an output LC filter. The proposed method can enhance the output voltage quality by using an optimal predictive control law (OPCL). Additionally, the proposed method corrects the input voltage commands through the FLA-based online gain tuning aiming to satisfy the hardware constraint. Thus, the proposed FLA-based CCS-MPC can guarantee an acceptable output voltage with a faster transient response, smaller steady-state error (SSE), and lower total harmonic distortion (THD). Moreover, a Kalman filter-based load current observer is used to significantly improve the reliability and robustness. Comparative experimental studies with another CCS-MPC method are conducted on a prototype three-phase CVCF inverter using TI TMS320F28335 DSP to validate the improved performance under the step-changes of linear/unbalanced/nonlinear loads with uncertain parameters.

This paper proposes a simple 1 st -order disturbance observer (DO)-based optimal control (DOBOC) strategy for surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) drives. A detailed comparative analysis of three reduced-order (i.e., 1 st , 2 nd , and 3 rd ) DOs has been presented in terms of structural complexity along with transient and steady-state performances. A simple 1 st -order DOBOC is proposed with a considerably simple and easy gain tuning procedure without any complex equation and time-consuming weighting matrices selection while ensuring a competitive control performance. Also, the stability of three DOBOCs is proven using the Lyapunov function, which has not been carried out in the previous studies. Furthermore, this paper provides a detailed procedure to systematically select the controller and observer gains of three reduced-order (i.e., 1 st , 2 nd , and 3 rd ) DOBOC by experiment. Comparative experiments are performed to confirm the feasibility of the proposed 1 st -order DOBOC using a prototype SPMSM test-bed with a TI TMS320F28335 DSP. Finally, verification results and comparative table are presented to compare the speed tracking performance (e.g., transient response, undershoot (US), steady-state error (SSE), and robustness to load torque disturbances) of three reduced-order DOBOC methods under speed and load torque step-changes.INDEX TERMS Disturbance observer (DO), optimal control (OC), reduced-order disturbance observerbased optimal control (DOBOC), stability analysis, surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM).
