“…Although this control type's use has majorly focused on converter control, the trend of its application for variable speed drives control is also on the rise [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18].…”

“…In the area of motor drives, MPC has been very successfully employed for predictive torque control (PTC) [9,10,13,14] and predictive current control (PCC) [13], and predictive flux control (PFC) [11] and speed control [15] of induction motor drives. The research extended the use of MPC to sensorless [14,16,17] as well as fault tolerant [12] induction motor drives. The MPC's application range is not limited to threephase applications but has also encompassed multiphase induction machine topologies [12].…”

-The paper presents a new implementation of direct flux and current vector control of an induction motor drive using the techniques of model predictive control. The advantages offered by predictive control are used to enhance the dynamics of direct flux vector control. To minimize the problems of variable switching frequency inherent to finite control set predictive control, an alternative approach using pulse width modulation is studied for command execution as occurs in the so-called modulated model predictive control. A comparison between finite control set and modulated model predictive control is presented and the results are also compared with the control implementation through traditional proportional-integral regulators to highlight the advantages and drawbacks of predictive control based strategies. Apart from a greater harmonic content in stator currents, the predictive control can offers control dynamics comparable with proportional-integral control while maintaining immunity against machine parameter variations and excluding the need for controller tuning.

“…Various control schemes based on FCS-MPC, including current [2], flux and torque [3,4], speed [5], and sensorless speed [6] control, have been reported. Despite its generality, one practical problem is associated with the computational burden, which in turn depends on the number of inverter switching states.…”

-A two-motor drive, supplied by a five-leg inverter, is considered in the paper. The independent control of machines with full dc-bus voltage utilization is typically achieved using an existing pulse width modulation (PWM) technique in conjunction with field-oriented control, based on PI current control. However, model predictive control (MPC), based on a finite number of control inputs (finite-control-set MPC, FCS-MPC) does not utilize a pulse width modulator. The paper introduces three FCS-MPC schemes for synchronous current control in this drive system. The first scheme uses all the available switching states. The second and the third scheme are aimed at reducing the computational burden and utilize a reduced set of voltage vectors and duty ratio partitioning principle, respectively. Steady-state and transient performance are analyzed and compared both against each other, and with respect to the field-oriented control based on PI controllers and PWM. All analyses are experimental and use the same experimental rig and test conditions. Comparison of the predictive schemes leads to the conclusion that the first two schemes have the fastest transient response. The third scheme has a much smaller current ripple, while achieving perfect control decoupling between the machines, and is of low computational complexity. Nevertheless, at approximately the same switching loss, the PI-PWM control yields the lowest current ripple but with slower electrical transient response.

“…This unique feature, introduces an important advantage of these controllers over the rest of the controllers, which only take the present and past tracking errors into consideration. In addition, these controllers allow the integration of system constraints into the controller design, and they ensure a near optimum performance of the system by minimizing the cost function in the control law [9]. However the high computational requirement of these controllers is a drawback that limits their use [9].…”

This paper presents a control system of an Induction Machine (IM) with predictive controller-estimator. A novel speed estimator is proposed, and the estimator operation is examined at different operational conditions. The new estimator shows an improvement in the speed estimation during the transient operation compared to the conventional estimators, and it also shows a satisfactory operation at different operating conditions. Simulations results are presented and the proposed experimental rig is described.
