Conventional model predictive power control (MPPC) features a simple concept and quick dynamic response. However, it relies heavily on the systemmodel its parameter accuracy. Furthermore, steady ripples are still high due to use of one voltage vector during period. Recently, model-free current (MFPCC) has been proposed in PWMrectifiers. Despite strong robustness, principle MFPCC cannot be direc...

Abstract – This paper explores predictive digital current programmed control for valley, peak or average current. The control laws are derived for the three basic converters: buck, boost, and buckboost. It is found that for each variable of interest (valley, peak or average current) there is a choice of the appropriate pulse-width modulation method to achieve predictive digital current control ...
