Abstract
Multiobjective model predictive control (Mo-MPC), owing to its simplicity and adaptability to comply with diverse constraints, has gained popularity in the control of direct matrix converters (DMCs). However, the MPC strategy makes the converter operate at an uncontrolled and variable switching frequency, which may inhibit high power density applications due to increased power losses. This article proposes a method for controlling the switching frequency of the converter and simultaneously regulating the common mode voltage in the DMC fed system while maintaining sinusoidal load and source currents at near unity input power factor. Furthermore, in order to streamline the control while simultaneously dealing with these objectives, a suitable normalization technique is implemented for scaling the errors in each objective. This method is validated through simulation and experimental results.
