Simulation models of model predictive torque control (MPTC), model predictive torque deadbeat control (MPTC-DB) and deadbeat model predictive torque control (DB-MPTC) for induction motor are established. Simulation results under the control of three schemes are compared. The results show that, compared with the MPTC, the MPTC-DB can decrease the root mean squared error (RMSE) of torque ripple by 26.92%. Compared with the MPTC-DB, the DB-MPTC can decrease the RMSE of torque ripple by 66.93% and the RMSE of stator flux by 43.37%, which is an optimal strategy.
