Accurate FCS Model Predictive Current Control Technique for Surface-Mounted PMSMs at Low Control Frequency

In order to enhance the control performance of the surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM) working under the low frequency situations, this letter innovatively proposes an accurate finite control set (FCS) model predictive current control (MPCC) method. First, a novel predicting plant model in the continuous-time domain based on the numerical solutions of the PMSM state-space model (differential equations) is developed. Without using the linear discretization implementation, the influence of the low control frequency can be eliminated completely. Besides, a brand-new calculation delay compensation method based on delay time prediction and current precompensation is designed for the proposed FCS-MPCC strategy. Finally, experiments are conducted on a PMSM test bench with the control frequencies of 2 and 1 kHz to comprehensively verify the proposed algorithms.
