Abstract

This invention relates to the field of predictive control technology for converters, and in particular to a three-vector model predictive control method and system for multiple parallel three-level converters. The method includes: performing equivalent modeling based on acquired parameters of the multiple parallel three-level T-type converters; constructing a discrete model of the multiple parallel three-level T-type converters based on the equivalent model; performing mn coordinate system transformation and determining the optimal voltage vector based on the discrete model; performing 120°gh coordinate system transformation and solving for redundant voltage vectors based on the mn coordinate system transformation and the optimal voltage vector; allocating the redundant voltage vectors to a single converter based on a circulating current suppression strategy; and generating a PWM drive signal based on the allocation result. This invention can further reduce current ripple under fixed switching frequency conditions, thereby achieving a synergistic improvement in system operating efficiency and output power quality.
