To achieve precise voltage value for modern model-based motor control strategies, an accurate voltage distortion compensation method for voltage source inverters is proposed in this paper. The voltage distortion principles of a mosfet-based inverter and an IGBT-based inverter are analyzed and compared. A graphical solution of compensating voltage error is proposed, all the voltage distortion factors are considered. A current observer is designed to overcome time delay, achieve precise current in each switching period for compensation. The proposed method is of high precision, intuitive, and easy to implement. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by experiments. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

This paper proposes an alternative strategy of finite-control-set model-predictive torque control (MPTC) to reduce the computational burden and the torque ripple and decouple the switching frequency from the controller sampling time. An improved discrete space-vector modulation (DSVM) technique is utilized to synthesize a large number of virtual voltage vectors. The deadbeat (DB) technique is used to optimize the voltage vector selection process, avoiding enumerating all the feasible voltage vectors. With this proposed method, only three voltage vectors are tested in each predictive step. Based on the improved DSVM method, the three candidate voltage vectors are calculated by using a novel algebraic way. This new strategy has the benefits of both the MPTC method and the DB method. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is validated based on a test bench. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

This paper proposes a control strategy of finite-control-set model predictive torque control (FCS-MPTC) with a deadbeat (DB) solution for permanent-magnet synchronous motor drives. By using a DB solution, the process of selection of the best switching vector is optimized. The predicted DB voltage sector consisting of the desired voltage vector (VV) avoids the complete enumeration for testing all feasible VVs, which relieves the big calculation effort of the traditional FCS-MPTC method. The proposed system is experimentally carried out both in the steady state and in the transient state. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
