Abstract

This paper presents a new optimization technique for Finite Control Set Model Predictive Control (FCS-MPC) of multi-phase induction machines. The proposal allows for a fast computation of the control signal while simultaneously considering stator currents in the α−β (torque producing) plane and the x−y (harmonics) plane. The combinatorial search of the optimization phase is eliminated. Also, unlike previous approaches, the proposed region identification algorithm can be utilized in conjunction with weighting factors in the cost function. The optimization is done using a hyper-plane partition of the control set. The partition provides the weighted FCS-MPC solution with significantly less computation needs allowing for shorter sampling periods. The method is tested experimentally in a 5-phase induction motor showing enhanced results.
