The growing trends in wind energy technology are motivating the researchers to work in this
area with the aim towards the optimization of the energy extraction from the wind and the …

Wind energy conversion system (WECS) is interfaced with the utility system through power
electronic converters which plays an important role in the integration of wind power into the …

Wind power now represents a major and growing source of renewable energy. Large wind
turbines (with capacities of up to 6–8 MW) are widely installed in power distribution …

Wind power is still the most promising renewable energy in the year of 2013. The wind
turbine system (WTS) started with a few tens of kilowatt power in the 1980s. Now …

In this paper, a small-signal model of voltage source converter (VSC) is developed to
investigate the stability of dc-link voltage control. This model contributes to representing the …

This paper proposes a sliding-mode control (SMC)-based scheme for the variable-speed
direct-driven wind energy conversion systems (WECS) equipped with a permanent magnet …

Although it has long been argued that electronic power converters can help improve system
controllability, reliability, size, and efficiency, their penetration in power systems is still quite …

One way to incorporate the increasing amount of wind penetration is to control wind turbines
to emulate the behavior of conventional synchronous generators. However, the energy …

With the advances of power electronic technology, direct-driven permanent magnet
synchronous generators (PMSGs) have increasingly drawn the interest of wind turbine …

This paper proposes a low-voltage ride-through scheme for the permanent magnet
synchronous generator (PMSG) wind power system at the grid voltage sag. The dc-link …
