Özet

This study presents a novel Lyapunov-based model predictive control strategy for a nine-switch inverter-based multi-drive system. The drive system includes two ac motors and a single nine-switch inverter (NSI) that is capable of feeding the multiple induction motors. The model predictive control (MPC) is a popular feedback strategy in ac-drive applications due to its fast dynamic characteristics and the skill of handling multiple control goals. Although the MPC offers a rapid dynamic response to load variations, it suffers from closed-loop instability when the cost function is poorly designed. The unwise choice of the tuning parameters, cost function terms, and control constraints cause instability resulting in poor system performance. In particular, the formulation of the selected objective function greatly impacts the closed-loop stability since it tailors the closed-loop characteristics. A simple penalization of the control goal error in the cost function may not ensure asymptotic stability. Motivated by the MPC stability problem, the cost function is reformulated as a Lyapunov energy function to strengthen the closed-loop stability in this paper. The proposed method selects the control input that meets the Lyapunov stability criterion and applies it to the multi-motor driver. The proposed strategy ensures asymptotic stability and provides a robust motor operation by introducing the Lyapunov control constraints. The proposed feedback strategy is experimentally verified using a lab-scaled hardware test platform. The experimental results demonstrate that the suggested control routine offers an improved steady-state characteristic compared to the conventional MPC method. (c) 2017 Elsevier Inc.
