Seminar Announcement

 

The  IEEE  IAS/PELS/IES  North  Italy  Joint  Chapter  in  collaboration  with  the  Department of Information Technology, University of Parma, invites you to attend the Seminar on:

 

Predictive Control: the Powerful Method
to Control Power Converters and Drives in the Future

 

held by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ralph Kennel

Electrical and Computer Engineering Dept., TUM Technische Universität München (D)

at the Department of Information Technology (Sala Riunioni Palazzina 4 Viale delle Scienze 181/A Parma) on Thursday September 15th, 2016,  from 9:30 to 11:30am

Abstract of the Seminar – Up to the present the control of electrical power using power converters has been based on the principle of mean value, using pulse width modulation with linear controllers in a cascaded structure.

Recent research works have demonstrated that it is possible to use Predictive Control to control electrical energy with the use of power converters, without using modulators and linear controllers. This is a new approach that will have a strong impact on control in power electronics in coming decades.

 

Attendance at the Seminar is free of charge until all seats.

For organization reasons, participants are invited to inform by a mail to giovanni.franceschini@unipr.it
