Prediction Error Analysis of Finite-Control-Set Model Predictive Current Control for IPMSMs

Finite-control-set model predictive current control (FCS-MPCC) has been widely investigated in the field of motor control. When the discrete motor prediction model is not obtained accurately, prediction error often occurs, which can result in improper determinations of optimal voltage vectors and can further affect the control performance of motor systems. However, papers evaluating the motor control performance employing FCS-MPCC rarely consider prediction error and its utilization to weaken the influence of inaccurate prediction model. This paper investigates in depth the prediction error caused by three influencing factors from the perspective of model accuracy—discretization method, prediction stepsize, and parameter mismatch. Firstly, the evaluation index, prediction error, is defined and its formulas considering the above three factors are derived based on interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). Then, the theoretical analysis of prediction error is provided. Finally, experimental results of an IPMSM drive system are presented to verify and complement the theoretical analysis. Both the theoretical analysis and experimental results fully elaborate the prediction error, which can offer practical guidelines for the evaluation and improvement of motor control performance, especially for FCS-MPCC in IPMSM applications.
