Abstract

This article aims to first focus on an improvement of finite control-set model predictive control strategy for power converters that is based on reinforcement learning event-triggered predictive control architecture with the help of adaptive dynamic programming technique and event-triggered mechanism subject to system uncertainties. Our development, endowed with the merits of reinforcement learning and event-triggered control as well as a predictive control solution, is able to alleviate the issues of parametric uncertainties and high switching frequency inherent in the existing scheme, while retaining the merits of the finite control-set model predictive control. Finally, this proposal is experimentally evaluated, where robust performance tests confirm the interest and applicability of the proposed control methodology.
