TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the challenges faced by MPC to reach industrial acceptance and the main conclusions are that the algorithm must remain simple and must demonstrate that it brings operating advantages in comparison to the classical linear control with Pulse Width Modulation.

TL;DR: In this paper, a predictive current control modification is proposed for reducing the switching frequency by decoupling it from the sampling time, thus the performance of the system is improved but the switch frequency is kept bellow its limits.

TL;DR: In this paper, the predictive current control and predictive voltage control (PVC) schemes are presented considering grid-connected and standalone distributed generation applications respectively, and the discrete time model of load currents, load voltages, DC-link capacitors voltage and VSC terminal voltages is formulated in terms of four-leg converter switching states.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared three different current controllers based on symmetrical components and linear quadratic regulator for low voltage ride-through requirement fulfillment, dc link voltage ripple, grid current balancing and oscillating power flow.

TL;DR: A modification of the predictive current control is presented for decoupling the switching frequency from the sampling frequency, thus the performance of the system is improved and the switching Frequency is kept controlled.
