Abstract
This paper presents a new formulation of a finite control set model-predictive control (FCS-MPC) algorithm, allowing to determine the best commutation instant in order to optimize the converter current tracking. This algorithm, mixing properties of FCS-MPC method and time resolution related to pulse width modulation schemes, is illustrated in a parallel flying capacitor converter. The parallel association of classical commutation cells is a good solution for increasing the output current driven by the converters, while the standard semiconductor technology is used. The control strategy used with this type of connection must be able to ensure not only a good distribution of the output current among the different legs, but also the balancing of the floating capacitor voltages.
