Generalized Predictive Control Scheme for a Wind Turbine System
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- Modulating the current of the rotor-side converter (RSC), using the GPC speed regulator in order to track the optimal wind turbine speed by applying Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT);
- Truncated Newton (TNC) optimizer is incorporated into the controller design process [27]. TNC uses a truncated Newton algorithm to minimize the rotor current to the bounds;
- Highlighting the out-performance of the proposed method compared to the existing techniques by using Matlab/Simulink.
