| सारांश: | This paper presents a comprehensive model predictive control (CMPC) method to control a three-phase four-legged inverter (TP4LI) for PV systems. The proposed TP4LI model aims to predictively model and control switching frequency and higher voltage/current switching to reduce losses. The CMPC model can be operated in four modes, namely standard MPC mode (Mode I), switching frequency reduction (SFR) mode (Mode II), high voltage/current switching loss reduction (SLR) mode (Mode III), and SFR plus SLR mode (Mode IV, a combination of Modes II and III). The proposed CMPC approach controls the TP4LI to (1) successfully track balanced and unbalanced reference currents with balanced or unbalanced loads; (2) reduce switching losses; and (3) keep the generated current total harmonic distortion (THD) within the industry’s recommended limits. The TP4LI model with the CMPC approach was verified and validated in the MATLAB/Simulink for a PV system. The simulation results show good tracking and performance of the TP4LI for balanced and unbalanced reference currents with balanced and unbalanced loads in all four modes of operation.
