Zusammenfassung:The most challenging aspect of utilizing model predictive controllers (MPCs), particularly those involving power electronic applications, is the extraction of a model that accurately represents the behavior of the studied system. Concerning the use of power electronic applications, as long as an MPC is used, adjusting the controller parameters brings difficulties. In addition, as the number of elements increases, it becomes harder to get the best control law out of the model. To do away with the need for model extraction, this study presents an offline data‐driven approach in conjunction with the MPC that can optimally adjust the MPC parameters based on the iterative feedback tuning (IFT) algorithm called the iterative feedback predictive controller (IFPC). The proposed method eliminates concerns regarding selecting an optimal number of algorithm iterations, thereby reducing operating costs, by introducing a modified IFT called feedback‐based IFPC (FIFPC) while simultaneously achieving optimal MPC parameters. The proposed method is applied to a constant voltage load (CVL) connected less‐than‐ideal buck converter, that is, one with perturbed filter elements and variable loads. A robust stability analysis (RSA) is performed under normal operating conditions to investigate the robustness behavior of the proposed controller. Simulation studies are presented to evaluate the proposed controller under different scenarios, such as step and abrupt load changes and measurement noise, compared with the well‐known model‐based and data‐enabled predictive controller (DeePC) approaches in the MATLAB/Simulink environment. This paper presents a predictive data‐driven method that eliminates the need for mathematical modeling of the system. The proposed method is applied to a perturbed buck converter.
