To address this challenge, a straightforward mathematical method has been proposed for fault detection in UHVDC system based on the downsampling factor (DF) and approximation derivatives (AD). The signals at multiple sampling frequencies were analysed using the DF, and the AD approach was used to generate various levels of detail and approximation coefficients. Initially, the signals were processed with different DF values. The first, second, and third order derivatives of the generated signals were calculated by the AD method. Next, the entropy features of these signals were computed, and the Random Forest-Recursive feature elimination with cross-validation (RF-RFECV) algorithm was used to select a high-quality feature subset. Finally, an ensemble classifier consisting of Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM), K Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and Naive Bayes (NB) classifiers was utilized to identify UHVDC faults.

Variations in external factors such as unidentified disturbances (loads) and evolving motor properties add complexity to control efforts. To tackle these intricacies and limitations, a nonlinear control approach is essential. Recent attention has turned to employing predictive control techniques for nonlinear multivariable systems, offering an intriguing avenue for research. In this context, this study introduces a novel hybrid control approach that addresses nonlinearity, parametric fluctuations, and external disturbances. The method combines two essential components: first, the outer loop utilizes high-order sliding mode control (HSMC) to optimize torque and trajectory speed, mitigating chattering phenomena while preserving the PMSM’s convergence and robustness traits. The inner loop, known as the current control, employs the newly developed nonlinear robust generalized predictive control (RNGPC) technique. Importantly, this strategy circumvents the need for direct measurement and observation of external disturbances and parameter uncertainties. The proposed strategy follows a two-phase process. Initially, the reference quadratic current is designed using the electromagnetic torque computed via HSMC, subsequently determining the necessary current to achieve the desired torque. The second phase involves computing the controller law through the robust generalized nonlinear predictive control technique. The approach’s strength lies in its ability to maintain stability and convergence in the face of external disturbances and parameter fluctuations, without necessitating precise measurements or knowledge of the disturbances. To validate the proposed control approach, simulation and experimental tests have been conducted across various operational scenarios.
