Abstract
This paper presents the torque ripple analysis of a brushless DC (BLDC) motor. This torque ripple is generated by generating the ripple in the stator current. For reducing the ripple, a phase-modulated model predictive current control strategy has been implemented in an MMC-fed BLDC motor. The performance of the torque ripple of the BLDC motor is enhanced by using the proposed phase-modulated model predictive control (PMMPC) technique as compared to the model predictive control (MPC) and proportional-integral (PI) controller. Moreover, the performance of the torque ripple is enhanced by increasing the switching frequency for all controllers. A comparative analysis of the torque ripple of the BLDC motor is depicted for different current control and different switching frequency. A harmonic distribution is also shown for all control techniques at switching frequencies of 1, 5, and 10 kHz. The harmonic content is minimum for the PMMPC technique when compared to the other mentioned control technique. The experimental validation of simulation results has also been done here.
