Hyung-Woo Lee, Hyeon-Jun Park, and Kyo-Beum Lee, "Model‑Based Predictive Torque Control of Open‑End Winding IPMSMs Driven by Direct Self‑Control," Journal of Power Electronics, vol. 24, pp. 1617-1627, Oct. 2024. -SCIE > Paper

This paper proposes a method for the torque ripple reduction of an open-end winding interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (OEW-IPMSM) 

using direct self-control (DSC). The conventional DSC has been researched in high-power systems because of its advantages in terms of a low 

switching frequency and a fast response of torque. Nevertheless, high torque ripple is a disadvantage of the conventional DSC. This is because the 

trajectory of the stator fux is controlled in the shape of a hexagon for lower switching frequencies and by applying hysteresis torque control. In this 

paper, predictive torque control using a mathematical model of an OEW-IPMSM is presented to improve the quality of the torque control. In addition, 

the presented method addresses the trajectory control of the fux using the diverse voltage vectors of the dual inverter. The validity of the presented 

method is demonstrated by simulations and experimental results.
