Abstract :
The predictive direct power control (P-DPC) strategy computes the application times of several voltage-vectors included in a predefined sequence. Until now only approximate solutions of the P-DPC have been presented. This contribution proposes two improvements to the P-DPC: the exact solution of the control problem and the fastest possible transient.
