For more than 20 years, the so-called field-oriented control is standard for controlled electric drive systems. Until now, the strategies based on this method fulfill completely the requirements of drive technology. However, due to the system characteristics, an arbitrary improvement of the controller properties is not possible. Predictive or precalculating control methods which need no controller cascade are an alternative. Main focus of this work is to examine model-based predictive controllers for their applicability in drive technology. These methods with their high prediction horizon are well-known from classic control theory and in process engineering they are applied with great success. Several strategies are presented, explained and evaluated, whereas, at the same time, the interested reader gets advice for the implementation of these methods. Since model-based predictive control is, until now, not very common in drive technology, this work also includes detailed derivations of the control algorithms.
