bDescribes the general principles and current research into ModelPredictive Control MPC the most up-to-date control methodfor power converters and drivesb pThe book starts with an introduction to the subject before thefirst chapter on classical control methods for power converters anddrives. This covers classical converter control methods andclassical electrical drives control methods. The next chapter onModel predictive control first looks at predictive control methodsfor power converters and drives and presents the basic principlesof MPC. It then looks at MPC for power electronics and drives. Thethird chapter is on predictive control applied to power converters.It discusses control of a three-phase inverter control of aneutral point clamped inverter control of an active front endrectifier, and control of a matrix converter. In the middle of thebook there is Chapter four - Predictive control applied to motordrives. This section analyses predictive torque control ofindustrial machines
