Abstract
Model predictive control (MPC) has become an attractive solution for doubly fed induction motors (DFIMs) due to its fast dynamic response and multi-variable constraint handling capability. However, the performance of conventional MPC relies on the accuracy of the system model. To further enhance the control performance and adaptability, this paper proposes a fuzzy logic-based model predictive control (FL-MPC) strategy. The proposed method continuously monitors the current tracking errors and their rates of change, utilizing a fuzzy inference system to dynamically optimize the weight distribution within the predictive model. This enables the controller to autonomously adjust its behavior for optimal performance across a wide range of operating conditions. Both simulation and experimental results demonstrate that, compared to the conventional MPC, the proposed FL-MPC strategy achieves superior dynamic response.
