Abstract: An electrical converter is interconnected via a filter with an electrical load or an electrical power source.

Abstract: A method for controlling an electrical converter comprises the acts of determining an error value based on a difference between an estimated output value and a reference output value, the estimated output value being based on measurements in the electrical converter; comparing the error value with an error band and in the case of the error value exceeds the error band, controlling the electrical converter by switching to a different control scheme. The converter is controlled with the modified pre-calculated switching by determining a pre-calculated switching sequence for the converter based on an actual state of the electrical converter, the switching sequence comprising a sequence of switching transitions of the converter; modifying the pre-calculated switching sequence by modifying transition times of switching transitions of the pre-calculated switching sequence, such that the error value is minimized; and applying at least a part of the modified switching sequence to the electrical converter.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to a converter for an electrical system that is controlled in such that switching sequences for the converter, determined with respect to an optimization goal are modified such that by correcting a flux error resulting from assumptions on which the first optimization of the switching sequence is based.

Abstract: A method is provided for predicting pulse width modulated switching sequences for a multi-phase multi-level converter. With a first predicted switching sequence, due to multi-phase redundancies, equivalent switching sequences are determined. From the equivalent switching sequences, one switching sequence optimal with respect to a predefined optimization goal is selected. The selected switching sequence is used to switch the converter.
