MODEL PREDICTIVE CONTROL STRATEGY FOR PMSG WIND TURBINE SYSTEM USING FUZZY CONTROLLER

Abstract

In recent times, the best control strategic method for control of Wind Turbine systems is Model based Predictive Control (MPC) in the view of fast dynamic responses and robustness to variation of parameters. MPC strategy is adopted to presage the future behavior and to procure optimal applied voltage to system for cost function to be minimal. It is applied for both Synchronous generator side control(SGSC) and Grid side control(GSC) of PMSG Wind Turbine system. The proposed technique is MPC using fuzzy controller. The simulation results presented in terms of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of current waveforms in order to show the significant improvement in performance of MPC with fuzzy controller than MPC with PI controller
