Predictive Direct Control of SPMS Generators Applied to the Machine Side Converter of an OWC Power Plant

A new strategy framed in the field of model predictive direct current control applied to surface permanent magnet synchronous generator (SPMSG) is presented. Compared to conventional space vector control systems, the proposed predictive strategy reduces the number of PI regulators and maintains the advantages of a fixed switching frequency. It also performs a faster response providing a smooth ele...
