RT Journal Article T1 Predictive-fixed switching current control strategy applied to pix-phase induction machine A1 González, Osvaldo A1 Ayala, Magno A1 Doval Gandoy, Jesús A1 Rodas, Jorge A1 Gregor, Raúl A1 Rivera, Marco K1 3307 Tecnología Electrónica AB In applications such as multiphase motor drives, classical predictive control strategies are characterized by a variable switching frequency which adds high harmonic content and ripple in the stator currents. This paper proposes a model predictive current control adding a modulation stage based on a switching pattern with the aim of generating a fixed switching frequency. Hence, the proposed controller takes into account the prediction of the two adjacent active vectors and null vector in the ( α - β ) frame defined by space vector modulation in order to reduce the (x-y) currents according to a defined cost function at each sampling period. Both simulation and experimental tests for a six-phase induction motor drive are provided and compared to the classical predictive control to validate the feasibility of the proposed control strategy.
