Finite Control Set Model-Free Predictive Current Control of a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor

In this paper, a finite control set model-free predictive current control (FCS-MFPCC) of a permanent magnet synchronous motor is presented. The control scheme addresses the problems of large current fluctuation and decline of the motor system performance during parameter perturbation for the traditional finite control set model predictive current control (FCS-MPCC). Firstly, the mathematical model of the motor is analyzed and derived during parameter perturbation, and a new hyperlocal model of the motor is established based on this mathematical model. Secondly, a finite control set model-free predictive current controller is designed based on the new hyperlocal model, and a current error correction factor is introduced to correct the prediction error. Meanwhile, the stability of the observer is demonstrated via the Lyapunov theory. The simulation results show that the proposed control strategy reduces current fluctuation compared with the FCS-MPCC strategy, and the system is robust during parameter perturbation.
