Abstract :
The computational complexity of Model Predictive Pulse Pattern Control (MP3C) and its real-time requirements have so far limited the deployment of this optimisation-based control method for power electronic systems. In this paper, we present an FPGA implementation, which uses the Fast Gradient Method for solving the quadratic program underlying MP3C. The proposed method can solve the control problem in less than the required 25 μs with sufficient accuracy.
