  4. Abstract:
  5. Nowadays, Programmable Electronic AC Load (PEAL) is widely used to test various devices such as solar inverters, UPSs, filters, generators, and generally test all AC power and measuring devices. In this paper, Model Predictive Current Control (MPCC) is used for control of a programmable AC load. In each period, switching state that minimizes the cost function is selected and applied to the converter. Cost function is the square of the current components error. The effect of the horizon of prediction on the quality of the load current is investigated. To decrease the calculations burden, a limited search pool is used. Simulation results confirm that using two steps prediction horizon with limited search pool can generate currents with acceptable THD. © 2020 IEEE
