Abstract

In this paper, an artificial intelligence method particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is presented for determining the optimal PI controller parameters for the indirect control active and reactive power of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) to ensure a maximum power point tracking of a wind energy conversion system. A digital simulation is used in conjunction with the PSO algorithm to determine the optimum parameters of the PI controller. Integral time absolute error, integral absolute error and integral square error performance indices are considered to satisfy the required criteria in output active and reactive power of a DFIG. From the simulation results it is observed that the PI controller designed with PSO yields better results when compared to the traditional method in terms of performance index
