This paper proposes a novel predictive strategy based on a model predictive control (MPC) for the interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMSMs) driven by a three-level simplified neutral-point clamped inverter (3L-SNPC) for electric vehicle applications (EVAs). Based on the prediction of the future behavior of the controlled variables, a predefined multiobjective cost function incorporates the control objectives which are evaluated for every sampling period to generate the optimal switching state applied directly to the inverter without the modulation stage. The control objectives in this paper are tracking current capacity, neutral-point voltage balancing, common-mode voltage control, and switching frequency reduction. The principal concepts of the novel scheme are summarized as follows: first, the delay compensation based on the long horizon of prediction is adopted by a multilevel power converter structure. Second, based on the modified Lyapunov candidate function, both stability and recursive feasibility are ensured of the proposed predictive scheme. Third, the practicability of the real-time implementation is improved by the proposed “static voltage vector” (SVV) and “single state variation” (SSV) principles. Finally, the proposed concepts are implemented in the novel predictive control formulation as additional constraints without compromising the complexity and the good performances of the predictive controller. Therefore, only the switching states that guarantee the stability and the reduction of calculation burden criteria are considered in the evaluation of cost function. The proposed predictive scheme based on the “SVV” principle has demonstrated superior performance in simulation compared with the proposed scheme with the “SSV” principle. The computational burden and switching frequency rates are reduced by 35% and 56.22%, respectively.
