Abstract

This paper investigates maximum power extraction from a wind-energy-conversion system (WECS) with a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) operating in standalone mode. This was achieved by designing a robust adaptive nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode control (ANFTSMC) for the WECS-PMSG. The proposed scheme guaranteed optimal power generation and suppressed the system uncertainties with a rapid convergence rate. Moreover, it is independent of the upper bounds of the system uncertainties as an online adjustment algorithm was utilized to estimate and compensate them. Finally, four case studies were carried out, which manifested the remarkable performance of ANFTSMC in comparison to previous methods reported in the literature.
