Description
Summary:Predictive current control is the use of predictive model for controlling load current tracking reference value, which forecasts future current values based on the selection one of the 27 voltage vectors of T-type NPC inverter. The cost function will minimize tolerance between control and reference current and 2 capacitor voltage values. These distortions depend on system load parameter elements. However, they are not the constant in the real event, which vary with operational conditions causing the distortion in control. In this paper, the new inductance estimation method is applied to predict future inductance values on-line, future current values as well as voltage values of 2 capacitors in order to improve the current quality. The proposed method is introduced and compared with the conventional algorithm to express the advantage of new technique. Simulation results are obtained by PSIM software and experimental results verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the algorithm.
