Abstract

The Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) is applied in this paper to enhance the control of a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) driven by a wind turbine (WT) with the space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) inverter. The proposed model is then compared to a classical pulse width modulation (PWM) inverter to improve the quality of the generated energy. The simulation results of these two techniques are presented under MATLAB/Simulink. The results show that FLC-SVPWM gives a lower value for total harmonic distortion (THD) of the stator current as well as reduced ripples of active and reactive powers compared to the FLC-PWM.
