Abstract :
Model Predictive Control (MPC) can provide performance benefits over traditional schemes in power electronic converter control. A key variable in predictive control schemes is the prediction horizon. This paper examines the impact of increasing the prediction horizon of a five level StatCom via simulation and experimental results.
