This paper describes the controller design for a DFIG based wind energy generation system using the static output feedback technique through the LMI Toolbox. The features of the DFIG, its converters and their controllers are discussed. The lower order nominal representation of DFIG is obtained using numerical differentiation of the SIMULINK model which is subsequently used for PID controller design. The obtained results are compared with existing methods for performance enhancement of the DFIG and wind energy conversion systems.

This manuscript illustrates the controller design for a doubly fed induction generator based variable speed wind turbine by using a bioinspired scheme. This methodology is based on exploiting two proficient swarm intelligence based evolutionary soft computational procedures. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) and bacterial foraging optimization (BFO) techniques are employed to design the controller intended for small damping plant of the DFIG. Wind energy overview and DFIG operating principle along with the equivalent circuit model is adequately discussed in this paper. The controller design for DFIG based WECS using PSO and BFO are described comparatively in detail. The responses of the DFIG system regarding terminal voltage, current, active-reactive power, and DC-Link voltage have slightly improved with the evolutionary soft computational procedure. Lastly, the obtained output is equated with a standard technique for performance improvement of DFIG based wind energy conversion system.

This paper describes the controller design aspects of DFIG-based wind turbine system (WTS) using gravitational search algorithm (GSA). The appropriate control schemes are required for efficient and reliable functioning of the DFIG-based wind energy conversion system (WECS). The control algorithms are implemented in converters which are placed in the rotor end and grid side of the WECS. The controller design schemes are optimized for accurate, reliable and stable operations of WECS using GSA. The most commonly used other design techniques are bacterial foraging optimization (BFO), and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Moreover, the transfer function modeling of DFIG is also described in this paper. The results show that the proposed GSA technique with sixths order transfer function model of DFIG improves the transient performance including time of rising the response to 90%, settling time, and amplitude of peak overshoot. The proposed GSA technique is compared with the techniques already implemented in the previous research works including PSO and BFO. The DFIG-based WTS's output waveforms of voltage at dc-link, reactive power, and active power are improved using GSA based design technique. Finally, it is concluded that the GSA technique gives better results as compared with the PSO and BFO techniques.This is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
