The Three-Level Neutral-Point-Clamped (3L-NPC) inverter fed Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drive is an attractive configuration for high performance Electric Vehicle (EV) applications. For such configuration, due to their high performances, the Finite-Control-Set Model Predictive Control (FCS-MPC) is a very attractive control solution. The FCS-MPC scheme is based on the prediction of the future behavior of the controlled variables using the dynamic model of PMSM and the discrete nature of the 3L-NPC inverter. However, the parametric uncertainties and time-varying parameters affect the FCS-MPC algorithm performances. In this paper, robust FCS-MPC controls based on “dynamic error correction” (DEC) and “modified revised prediction” (MRP) are proposed to improve the FCS-MPC robustness without affecting the controller performances and complexity. The proposed strategies are improved also by multiobjective (MO) algorithm optimization and computation delay compensation. The simulation results included prove the performance in robustness and efficiency of the proposed robust FCS-MPC-DEC.
