The IEEE PELS NHCE Student Branch Chapter from Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, New Horizon College of Engineering, Bengaluru is organizingthe Distinguished Lecture Program on “Model predictive control in power electronics: a critical review and recent industrial products”on 29th September 2021, Wednesday from 05.00 PM to 07.00 PM in association with IEEE PELS Bangalore Chapter. The objective of the programme is to bring the researchers and academic experts from reputed institutes of our country to a collective gathering for exchanging and sharing the knowledge about the recent developments and research challenges in model predictive control in power electronics: a critical review and recent industrial products. The number of publications per year on predictive control doubles every three years. The strong interest in academia is reflected in industry with two recent product releases. Both use model predictive control for high-power variable speed drives which improves efficiency, increases rated power and lowers the overall system cost. This lecture introduces the main predictive control methods available today in a concise yet intuitively accessible way. The lesser known methods are also discussed, providing a comprehensive introduction to the subject. The first two industrial success stories are presented in detail, and their commercial benefits are explained. The lecture concludes with a critical assessment of the state-of-the-art in predictive control and points out directions for future research.
