Continuous and Finite Set Model Predictive Control of Induction Motor Drive

Abstract

This paper presents a comparative study of application of two novel control structures based on the Model Predictive Control for the drive system with an induction motor. The first one relies on continuous set model predictive control (CS-MPC). The finite set model predictive control (FS-MPC) is utilized in the second approach. The parameters of those two versions are set in order to allow experimental verification of the algorithms and at the same time to obtain a good control performance. The different application aspects, such as the type of model used in prediction, computational complexity of the algorithms, control performance including the noise level are judged.
