An Improved Deadbeat Predictive Current Control Method for SPMSM Drives with a Novel Adaptive Disturbance Observer

To improve the dynamic performance of conventional deadbeat predictive current control(DPCC)under parameter mismatch,especially eliminate the current overshoot and oscillation during torque mutation,it is necessary to enhance the robustness of DPCC against various working conditions.However,the disturbance from parameter mismatch can deteriorate the dynamic performance.To deal with the above problem,firstly,traditional DPCC and the parameter sensitivity of DPCC are introduced and analyzed.Secondly,an extended state observer(ESO)combined with DPCC method is proposed,which can observe and suppress the disturbance due to various parameter mismatch.Thirdly,to improve the accuracy and stability of ESO,an adaptive extended state observer(AESO)using fuzzy controller based on ESO,is presented,and combined with DPCC method.The improved DPCC-AESO can switch the value of gain coefficients with fuzzy control,accelerating the current response speed and avoid the overshoot and oscillation,which improves the robustness and stability performance of SPMSM.Finally,the three methods,as well as conventional DPCC method,DPCC-ESO method,DPCC-AESO method,are comparatively analyzed in this paper.The effectiveness of the proposed two methods are verified by simulation and experimental results.

Robust Dichotomy Solution-Based Model Predictive Control for the Grid-Connected Inverters with Disturbance Observer

This paper proposes a robust dichotomy-based model predictive control(DS-MPC)with a fixed switching frequency for the grid-connected inverter(GCI).The proposed fast dichotomy algorithm can select and deduce the optimal voltage vector dynamically through the space vector plane.Therefore,the proposed DS-MPC strategy could ensure dynamic performance and steady-state performance as well.Also,the current control robustness can be improved through DS-MPC with disturbance observer(DO)based on the extended Kalman filter(EKF).The novelty of this control is that the current control with fast dynamic response can be realized in the weak grid,even if the grid voltages are greatly distorted.Simulation and hardware experiments on the weak grid validate the effectiveness of the proposed DS-MPC with the EKF observer approach.

Finite-Time Stabilization for Constrained Discrete-time Systems by Using Model Predictive Control

In this paper, a model predictive control(MPC)framework is proposed for finite-time stabilization of linear and nonlinear discrete-time systems subject to state and control constraints. The proposed MPC framework guarantees the finite-time convergence property by assigning the control horizon equal to the dimension of the overall system, and only penalizing the terminal cost in the optimization, where the stage costs are not penalized explicitly. A terminal inequality constraint is added to guarantee the feasibility and stability of the closed-loop system.Initial feasibility can be improved via augmentation. The finite-time convergence of the proposed MPC is proved theoretically,and is supported by simulation examples.

Influence of Control Modes of Grid-Connected Solar Photovoltaic Generation on Grid Power Flow

Integration of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) generation into an existing distribution system has many impacts on the system, with the power flow being one of the major issues. This impact is not generic for any network, but it may manifest itself either positively or negatively, depending on the grid configuration, interface control modes, operation mode, and load profile. Grid-connected PV systems have three control options of the local voltage controller of the interface DC-AC converter. These control modes are Power Factor control, voltage control, and Droop Voltage control. This paper aims at evaluating and comparing the impacts of those control modes on the grid power flow. A set of evaluation criteria and indices is defined and mathematically formulated. Based on the requirements of the used program (Power Factory Dig Silent V14.1.3), a computation plan (algorithm) has been proposed. The algorithm has been applied to a typical weak network and a wide range of simulations has been carried out. Simulation results have been thoroughly discussed and important findings have been concluded.

Research and simulation of two-level grid-connected photovoltaic inverter system

The photovoltaic cell can achieve the optimal state, and the solar energy is converted into electrical energy suffi- ciently in the two-level PV power system by using the method of MPPT which is based on the front stage Boost converter. The back stage network side inverter adopts the method of deadbeat control and the grid power factor turns to be 1. The maximum power point tracking is realized, and the grid current has the same frequency and phase with the grid voltage through simulation. Therefore, efficiency of the solar module is improved and the sine AC wave of the inverter control circuit is high-quality. Each converter can achieve relatively independent function in the two-level PV power system by the method of Matlab/Simulink software simulation. The simulation shows that it is very conducive to the modular design and integration of the system.

Both the existence conditions and the explicit expression of the desired controllers are given.

Coordination of multiple grid-connected inverters for harmonic compensation

For multiple grid-connected inverters with active filter function,it makes sense to regulate every unit to output maximum active power from photovoltaic arrays,as well as eliminate the harmonic due to the non-linear loads connected to the electric networks.Naturally,a centralized control coordination strategy was proposed for the purpose of high facility utilization,good harmonic compensation ability and unwanted overcompensation condition.Based on a vector decoupling control scheme and generalized instantaneous reactive power theory,the solution was to allocate the harmonic eliminating task for every inverter according to the instantaneous power margin of each.The grid current always keeps sinusoidal in spite of non-linear load change and output active power change for any inverter.The simulation results validate the efficacy of the proposed coordination strategy.

A Robust Deadbeat Control Method for UPS Inverters

The traditional deadbeat control for UPS inverters has a robustness problem. The parametric imprecision can greatly harm the stability of the system, which restricts the application. A novel robust deadbeat control method is proposed in this paper to deal with the problem. In the proposed control method, a proportional element is added to the traditional deadbeat control in order to improve the robustness to parametric imprecision. To eliminate the error between output voltage and voltage reference caused by environmental noise and parametric deviation, a model reference adaptive regulator is also added to the control method. A 1kVA prototype is built based on DSP. Theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the robustness for parametric variation of the proposed method is much better than the traditional deadbeat control. The system can remain stable even when the systemic parameters have a large deviation from calculating parameters. The system has small static error and fast dynamic response with the new control method. This method is easy to realize in DSP and is suitable for full digital realization of UPS.
