In this paper, a model based predictive control strategy with a fixed switching frequency applied to a three-phase cascade H-bridge multilevel STATCOM is introduced with the aim to increase the performance of classical model predictive control.Abstract:
The absence of modulator in model based predictive control technique for different converter topologies generates a variable switching frequency that produces high frequency harmonics and higher stress on the power semiconductor devices. In this paper, a novel model based predictive control strategy with a fixed switching frequency applied to a three-phase cascade H-bridge multilevel STATCOM is introduced with the aim to increase the performance of classical model predictive control. Simulation results show increased performance of the proposed control method in terms of current waveform total harmonic distortion.read more

Switching Frequency Regulation for FCS-MPC Based on a Period Control Approach
TL;DR: A new algorithm, based on the control of the switching period within the cost function, is proposed, which shows to be very effective in achieving a regular commutation pattern, similar to pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques, which is evidenced even by similarities in the sideband harmonics generated in the voltage spectrum.
