In this article, the performance of multilevel inverter-fed position sensorless permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive is analyzed using modified model predictive torque control (MPTC) method using two-level and three-level inverters, respectively. The MPTC method helps to control electromagnetic torque directly, which is not possible in model predictive current control, whereas the conventional model predictive torque and flux control method requires weighing factors that are similar to PI controllers used in field-oriented control or direct torque and flux control method. To simplify the control structure, most of the researchers are looking forward to weighing factorless predictive control strategies. The multilevel inverters required complex control algorithms such as space vector modulation. However, the model predictive control methods made it simple by using an embedded control structure. Furthermore, position sensorless control strategies are much needed because speed sensors are much prone to failures. Therefore, in this article, a model reference adaptive system (MRAS)–based speed sensorless approach is used to eliminate the requirement of a position sensor. The proposed multilevel inverter-fed position sensorless PMSM drive using modified MPTC is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment under different operating conditions such as under no-load, load, and change in speed. The simulation results are validated with the experimental results.
