Describes the general principles and current research into Model
Predictive Control (MPC); the most up-to-date control method
for power converters and drives

The book starts with an introduction to the subject before the
first chapter on classical control methods for power converters and
drives. This covers classical converter control methods and
classical electrical drives control methods. The next chapter on
Model predictive control first looks at predictive control methods
for power converters and drives and presents the basic principles
of MPC. It then looks at MPC for power electronics and drives. The
third chapter is on predictive control applied to power converters.
It discusses: control of a three-phase inverter; control of a
neutral point clamped inverter; control of an active front end
rectifier, and; control of a matrix converter. In the middle of the
book there is Chapter four - Predictive control applied to motor
drives. This section analyses predictive torque control of
industrial machines and predictive control of permanent magnet
synchronous motors. Design and implementation issues of model
predictive control is the subject of the final chapter. The
following topics are described in detail: cost function selection;
weighting factors design; delay compensation; effect of model
errors, and prediction of future references. While there are
hundreds of books teaching control of electrical energy using pulse
width modulation, this will be the very first book published in
this new topic.

* Unique in presenting a completely new theoretic solution to
control electric power in a simple way

* Discusses the application of predictive control in motor
drives, with several examples and case studies

* Matlab is included on a complementary website so the reader can
run their own simulations
