Finite-Control-Set Model Predictive Torque Control With a Deadbeat Solution for PMSM Drives

TL;DR: This paper proposes a control strategy of finite-control-set model predictive torque control with a deadbeat (DB) solution for permanent-magnet synchronous motor drives that relieves the big calculation effort of the traditional FCS-MPTC method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic Loss Minimization of Finite Control Set-Model Predictive Torque Control for Electric Drive System

TL;DR: In this article, a dynamic optimization strategy of finite control set-model predictive torque control for permanent magnet synchronous machines is proposed, which takes into account the inverter losses and machine losses simultaneously.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-Frequency Injection-Based Stator Flux Linkage and Torque Estimation for DB-DTFC Implementation on IPMSMs Considering Cross-Saturation Effects

TL;DR: In this paper, a new method for high-frequency injection (HFI)-based self-and mutual incremental inductance estimation is proposed and evaluated in both simulations and experiments, where the estimated incremental inductances including cross-coupling inductance due to cross saturation are curve fitted offline and then used to calculate the apparent inductances.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic Loss Minimization Using Improved Deadbeat-Direct Torque and Flux Control for Interior Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Machines

TL;DR: In this paper, the instantaneous dynamic loss model, which is a function of volt-second selection in each switching period, containing nonlinear effects such as minor hysteresis loops is theoretically derived and evaluated by both FEA simulation and experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduced Parameter Sensitivity Stator Flux Linkage Observer in Deadbeat-Direct Torque and Flux Control for IPMSMs

TL;DR: In this paper, a flux observer that utilizes disturbance input decoupling (DID) is proposed to estimate the stator flux and torque in a DTC system, where the flux estimation error due to the parameter variations is decoupled through the disturbance information from a stator current observer.
