Speed Control of PMSM drive using Model Predictive Control Based Field Oriented Control

Abstract

This paper examines the enhancement of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drives through the integration of Field-Oriented Control (FOC) with Model Predictive Control (MPC). The study aims to achieve high precision and dynamic response for PMSM drives under diverse operating conditions. The theoretical framework combines FOC and MPC principles, utilizing MPC's predictive capabilities to optimize d-q current references in real-time. The methodology encompasses the design and implementation of an MPC technique integrated with FOC, with key objectives including the minimization of torque ripples, the maintenance of system stability through robust control loops, and the optimization of PMSM drive performance across a wide speed range. The results indicate significant improvements in torque ripple reduction, dynamic response, and disturbance rejection, demonstrating the robustness and adaptability of the proposed control system. This approach effectively addresses key challenges and signifies advancements over traditional control methods, contributing to the field of electric drive control systems.
