Finite control set model-predictive control (FCS-MPC) has received increasing attentions due to its outstanding dynamic performance. It is being widely used in power converters and multilevel inverters. However, FCS-MPC requires a lot of calculations, especially for multilevel-cascaded H-bridge (CHB) static synchronous compensators (STATCOMs), since it has to take account of all the feasible voltage vectors of inverters. Hence, an improved five-segment space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) method based on the non-orthogonal static reference frames is proposed. The proposed SVPWM method has a lower number of switching states and requires fewer computations than the conventional method. As a result, it makes FCS-MPC more efficient for multilevel cascaded H-bridge STATCOMs. The partial cost function is adopted to sequentially solve for the reference current and capacitor voltage. The proposed FCS-MPC method can reduce the calculation burden of the FCS-MPC strategy, and reduce both the switching frequency and power losses. Simulation and experimental results validate the excellent performance of the proposed method when compared with the conventional approach.

무인항공기용 비행제어 시스템(FCS)의 신뢰성은 소형, 저가, 경량의 설계 제약 조건으로 인해 신뢰성이 과소평가 된다. 그러나 무인항공기에 탑재되는 비행제어 시스템의 고장은 항공기의 손실 및 추락사고로 이어지기 때문에 시스템 설계단계에서부터 정량적인 신뢰성 목표를 두어 설계검증이 이루어져야 한다. 본 논문에서는 비행제어 시스템의 개발 경험을 바탕으로 기능별 서브시스템에 따른 고장률을 예측하였다. 이를 바탕으로 시스템 신뢰성 목표를 만족시키기 위해 필요한 다중화 형상을 제시하였다. 이 결과들은 비행제어 시스템의 하드웨어 설계에 활용될 수 있다. The reliability of flight control system(FCS) for Unmanned Air Vehicle(UAV) is underestimated because of the design restrictions such as small size, low cost and light weight. However because the failure of FCS may cause the loss of aircraft, the reliability of FCS must be analysed and validated whether it meet the reliability requirements in design phase. In This paper the failure rate of subsystems was divided with its function based on the design experience of FCS. The redundancy models which satisfy the system reliability requirements were suggested. These results may be utilized in the hardware design of FCS.

Ahmed S. Omran,Mostafa S. Hamad,M. Abdelgeliel,Ayman S. Abdel-Khalik 제어·로봇·시스템학회 2023 International Journal of Control, Automation, and Vol.21 No.11

This paper proposes a data-driven approach strategy for enhancing the performance of grid forming converters (GFCs) in microgrids by leveraging the capabilities of dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) in combination with finite-control-set model predictive control (FCS-MPC). Conventional FCS-MPC, based on static models, have encountered numerous challenges in addressing parametric uncertainties in microgrid applications. To address this, the proposed strategy introduces an adaptive model based on DMD, integrated into the FCS-MPC framework to yield a more robust and reliable control technique in the presence of parametric uncertainties. The proposed datadriven approach utilizes the DMD-based model in combination with FCS-MPC to effectively share power through primary control and maintain voltage and frequency stability through secondary control, thus achieving improved reference tracking, load power variation robustness, and power quality. The effectiveness and efficiency of this proposed data-driven approach were validated through a comparative study with conventional static model FCS-MPC and double loop PI control, utilizing the MATLAB/Simulink platform.

This paper proposes a generalized control method to reduce computational burden based on finite control set-model predictive control(FCS-MPC) in a single-phase flying capacitor multilevel converter(FCMC). The proposed method consists of FCS-MPC with a hierarchical structure, which controls the grid current and flying capacitor voltage step-by-step using their respective cost functions. The proposed method reduces the number of calculations by segmenting power devices into groups and sequentially finding the optimal state using a round-robin priority. In addition, the optimal state is found simply through calculation without comparison due to the single-objective cost function. Therefore, the amount of calculation is significantly reduced compared with the conventional method and leads to a shortened execution time. By reducing execution time, the sampling period can be shortened, thereby increasing the switching frequency. Furthermore, by using a smaller inductor, the total harmonic distortion(THD) of the grid current can be reduced. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through simulation and experiment using a single-phase 6-level FCMC at the laboratory scale.

Robust sensorless FCS-PCC control for inverter-based induction machine systems with high-order disturbance compensation

Wang, Junxiao,Wang, Fengxiang The Korean Institute of Power Electronics 2020 JOURNAL OF POWER ELECTRONICS Vol.20 No.5

Due to its theoretically fast dynamic response with unlimited bandwidth for direct switch-driven-based induction machines, the finite control set predictive current control (FCS-PCC) method has been verified to be an effective solution in recent years. However, dynamic limitations of the outer speed PI controller exist, especially with high-order time-varying disturbances. In addition, hardware cost can be reduced. Using the universal proportional integral observer (UPIO) method, a robust deadbeat-like encoderless-based FCS-PCC control scheme is investigated for induction machine systems in this paper. The encoder is avoided using the proposed sensorless method. In addition, the system response and disturbance attenuation are enhanced in presence of time-varying unknown load torque and uncertainties. The squared norm is adopted for the cost function design to ensure system stability. Experimental results illustrate that it has good performance such as fast dynamics, good low-speed steady-state accuracy, and robustness.

This paper proposes a torque control method for surface mounted permanent magnetic synchronous motor (PMSM) driven by a 2-level voltage source driven inverter, which has fast torque response and small torque ripple. The proposed torque control method follows the finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) strategy. A reference state is derived at each time step for the given time varying torque reference and the cost index is defined so that the tracking error for this reference state should be penalized. The choice of an optimal output voltage vector is made first from the 6 possible active voltage vectors of the 2-level voltage source inverter. Then a modulation factor for the chosen optimal voltage vector is obtained so that the torque ripple can be reduced further. It is shown that the proposed FCS-MPC control method yields fast torque tracking response and small torque ripple through simulation and experiments.

Fault-Tolerant Control for 5L-HNPC Inverter-Fed Induction Motor Drives with Finite Control Set Model Predictive Control Based on Hierarchical Optimization

Chunjie Li,Guifeng Wang,Fei Li,Hongmei Li,Zhenglong Xia,Zhan Liu 전력전자학회 2019 JOURNAL OF POWER ELECTRONICS Vol.19 No.4

This paper proposes a fault-tolerant control strategy with finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) based onhierarchical optimization for five-level H-bridge neutral-point-clamped (5L-HNPC) inverter-fed induction motor drives. Faulttolerantoperation is analyzed, and the fault-tolerant control algorithm is improved. Adopting FCS-MPC based on hierarchicaloptimization, where the voltage is used as the controlled objective, called model predictive voltage control (MPVC), the postfaultcontroller is simplified as a two layer control. The first layer is the voltage jump limit, and the second layer is the voltagefollowing control, which adopts the optimal control strategy to ensure the current following performance and uniqueness of theoptimal solution. Finally, simulation and experimental results verify that 5L-HNPC inverter-fed induction motor drives havestrong fault tolerant capability and that the FCS-MPVC based on hierarchical optimization is feasible.
