Abstract
This work deals with Predictive Current Control (PCC) strategy using Field Oriented Control (FOC) for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSM), to improve the performance of the current loop. Based on the research conducted, FOC and PCC have good performance in PMSM drives. Hence a new method based on combined FOC-PCC is adopted in this project work. The main objectives of the FOC-PCC controller are to improve the dynamic characteristics of the drive and to reduce the current ripple. The simulation has been implemented with MATLAB/Simulink for a 750 W PMSM with rated speed of 3000 rpm and rated current of 4.8 A. The sampling time has been set to 20 μs, and the DC link voltage is maintained at 180 V. The reference speed has been set to 3000 rpm and load torque is set to 2 Nm. The stator currents have been limited below its maximum allowable set limit during the dynamic operations such as starting and braking and also during speed reversals with the help of control technique.
