<![CDATA[This paper uses the five-level neutral-point clamped (NPC) inverter to feed an electric vehicle's traction motor-interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). The model predictive control method controls the energy conversion process according to the model with two prediction steps. The advantage of this method is its fast response, which increases the ability to operate the converter with good voltage quality. Model predictive control (MPC) control is a closed-loop strategy with much potential when integrating multiple control objectives; the calculation process is compact without complex modulation. Within the scope of this article, the MPC strategy will be implemented with two control goals for NPC, including output load current and capacitor voltage balance with low switching frequency. The simulation results on MATLAB/Simulink software were performed to verify the proposed algorithm's effectiveness in minimizing the grid current's harmonics and ensuring an uninterrupted power supply.]]>
