This paper presents a new control strategy for a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) under unbalanced network voltage conditions. Coordinated control of the grid-and rotorside converters (GSC and RSC, respectively) during voltage unbalance is proposed. Under an unbalanced supply voltage, the RSC is controlled to eliminate the torque pulsation at double supply frequency. The oscillation of the stator output active power is then compensated by the active power output from the GSC, to ensure constant active power output from the overall DFIG generation system. In order to provide precise control of the positive-and negative-sequence currents of the GSC and RSC, a current control scheme consisting of a proportional integral (PI) controller and a resonant (R) compensator is presented. The PI plus R current regulator is implemented in the positive synchronous reference frame without the need to decompose the positiveand negative-sequence components. Simulations on a 1. 5-MW DFIG system and experimental tests on a 1.5-kW prototype validate the proposed strategy. Precise control of both positive-and negative-sequence currents and simultaneous elimination of torque and total active power oscillations have been achieved.

This paper presents a new direct active and reactive power control (DPC) of grid-connected doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind turbine systems. The proposed DPC strategy employs a nonlinear sliding-mode control scheme to directly calculate the required rotor control voltage so as to eliminate the instantaneous errors of active and reactive powers without involving any synchronous coordinate transformations. Thus, no extra current control loops are required, thereby simplifying the system design and enhancing the transient performance. Constant converter switching frequency is achieved by using space vector modulation, which eases the designs of the power converter and the ac harmonic filter. Simulation results on a 2-MW grid-connected DFIG system are provided and compared with those of classic voltage-oriented vector control (VC) and conventional lookup table (LUT) DPC. The proposed DPC provides enhanced transient performance similar to the LUT DPC and keeps the steady-state harmonic spectra at the same level as the VC strategy.

This paper proposes an improved direct power control (DPC) strategy for a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind power generation system under unbalanced grid voltage dips. The fundamental and double grid frequency power pulsations, which are produced by the transient unbalanced grid faults, are mathematically analyzed and accurately regulated. Five selectable control targets, with proper power references given, are designed for different applications during network unbalance. In order to provide enhanced control performance, two resonant controllers, which are tuned to have large gain at the power pulsation frequencies, are applied together with the proportional-integral controller to achieve full control of the DFIG output power. The effectiveness of the proposed DPC strategy is verified by the experimental results of a 5-kW DFIG system under different unbalanced voltage dips, which are generated by a specially designed voltage dip generator.Index Terms-Direct power control (DPC), doubly fed induction generator (DFIG), grid voltage unbalance, resonant controller, wind turbine.
