Virtual-Vector-Based FCS Model Predictive Current Control with Duty Cycle Optimization for Dual Three-Phase Motors

Abstract

This paper presents an improved finite control set model predictive current control (FCS-MPCC) based on virtual vectors with duty cycle control for dual three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (DTP PMSM) drives. Virtual vectors synthesized by two basic voltage vectors of the inverter are introduced to suppress the harmonic current by the vector space decomposition (VSD) model. And the virtual vectors with the optimal duty cycle can be obtained by duty cycle control using zero vectors to generate a fixed switching frequency. Moreover, a simple scheme of centrosymmetric switching patterns is presented for the realtime implementation. In this way, the performance of current tracking is improved while the computational burden is reduced. Finally, results of simulation analysis and DSP test for the three different strategies are given to verify the validity of the proposed strategy.
