This work proposes the use of the automatic Short Message Service (SMS) of a Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) network to transmit the control information to a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) of a wind turbine, according to the Smart Grid (SG) concept. In the proposed strategy, the Control Center (CC) can remotely transmit the required power references (active and reactive) to the DFIG controller, in order to manage the power generation of the wind turbine dynamically. The proposed wireless network was developed in a Software Defined Radio (SDR) transceiver connected to an OpenBTS platform. The control information can be directly inserted in the Open Base Transceiver Station (OpenBTS) server (located at the CC) or sent by a wireless device (e.g., mobile phone) connected to the GSM network, and then transmitted to the wireless receiver at the wind turbine. The receiver on the turbine side was developed in a microcontroller board with a GSM card, and the DFIG controller was implemented in a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) board. The results of the tests showed that the DFIG can be satisfactorily controlled according to the power references, considering that they vary at low rates.

The energy demand by modern society grows every day that allied with sustainable development requires the use of alternative sources in the new energy matrix. In this context, the wind energy as source by using a doubly-fed induction generator stands out due to its operational savings but still faces some conflicts in its power control. This paper proposes a state feedback plus integral controller for rotor current control. In order to verify the controller operation, an electromagnetic finite element analysis simulation of the interior of the machine was carried out, assuring the non-saturation of the core, which would lead to a control instability and it can increase the machine losses. For this, a machine modeling was presented into state equations in order to establish a power control diagram. The results of electromagnetic simulation and the experimental bench results when united ensure the correct functioning of the proposed system and the satisfactory efficiency of the controller. In this way, it can be concluded that the use of this control technique in counterpart with the conventional PI increases the response time of the system without affecting the electromagnetic dynamics of the generator.
