Model predictive control (MPC) is a very attractive solution for controlling power electronic
converters. The aim of this paper is to present and discuss the latest developments in MPC …

This paper presents a direct model predictive current control (MPC) strategy for quasi-Z-
source inverters (qZSIs). A discrete-time model is derived that accurately captures all …

In power converter control, predictive control has several merits, such as simple concept and
fast response. However, the necessity to use the weighting factor inside the cost function …

In this paper, a new two-step horizon finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) is
presented for a permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) system. The deadbeat …

Distributed generation systems based on renewable energy sources increased remarkably
in comparison to conventional systems. Power electronics are required to assure a high …

Permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) are widely used in many industrial
applications due to their attractive power and torque densities. To fully exploit their torque …

This paper presents a direct model predictive control (MPC) strategy for the quasi-Z-source
inverter connected to a linear/nonlinear load via an intermediate LC filter. The proposed …

This paper presents a direct model predictive control (MPC) with an extended prediction
horizon for the quasi-Z-source inverter (qZSI). The proposed MPC controls both sides of the …

The Quasi-Z-Source inverter (qZSI) applied to the photovoltaic (PV) system has nonlinear
and unstable zero dynamic characteristics, which leads to the problem of narrow system …

This paper presents a variable switching point predictive current control (VSP 2 CC) for the
quasi-Z-source inverter (qZSI). The proposed VSP 2 CC aims to regulate the current on the …
