This paper proposes a design scheme along with stability analysis of a new adaptive backstepping controller designed for permanent magnet synchronous generator-based wind turbine, by using artificial neural network-based uncertainty compensation. The idea is to control the rotor speed and the mechanical power generated under internal and external nonlinear parametric uncertainties. An uncertain model of permanent magnet synchronous generator is designed. Then, two artificial neural network compensators are built to compensate such uncertainties in the current loops. The stability of the closed-loop system is studied according to the Lyapunov function. Simulations of the dynamic model are performed under both variable step and random wind speeds by using the DEV-C++ software, and the results are plotted with MATLAB. Compared to the classical direct torque control technique, the obtained results show the robustness of the proposed controller despite the presence of different uncertainties.
