Unlike their three-phase counterparts, MIMs have additional degrees of freedom, known as (x − y) voltages or currents. MPC can integrate diverse constraints through a predefined cost function to regulate (x − y) components, but this can come at the cost of disturbing the flux and torque production. To address this challenge, a new approach has been introduced in this paper: Model Predictive Torque Control using Virtual Vectors (PTC-VV) for a six-phase IM. This approach aims to regulate copper losses in the (x − y) plane, which classic PTC cannot achieve using a single switching state during the sampling period. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of using virtual vectors in torque control for six-phase IMs through comprehensive simulation studies. The PTC-VV approach provides robust reference tracking for torque, flux, and stator (α − β) and (x − y) current regulations. This results in enhanced efficiency and adaptability of the control system, marking a notable advancement in PTC techniques. Additionally, this approach reduces the (x − y) currents in six-phase IMs. PB Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers SN 979-8-3503-1766-4 YR 2024 FD 2024-07-24 LK http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14066/4522 UL http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14066/4522 LA eng NO González, O., Doval Gandoy, J., Ayala, M., Maidana, P., Medina, C., Rodas, J., Romero, C., Delorme, L., Maciel, R., & Gregor, R.
