Abstract:
This paper investigates the application of the generalized predictive control (GPC), in order to control the speed of the induction motor. This application is based on four main ideas : reproducing decision basic mechanisms of human behaviour; the creation of an anticipatory effect by operation of the path to follow in the future; defining a numerical prediction model; minimization of a quadratic criterion with finite horizon and the principle of receding horizon. The results proved that the induction motor with the MPC speed controller has superior transient response, and good robustness in face of uncertainties including load disturbance. Moreover, accurate tracking performance has been achieved.
