Realization of State-Estimation-Based DFIG Wind Turbine Control Design in Hybrid Power Systems Using Stochastic Filtering Approaches

© 2016 IEEE.This paper uses three popular stochastic filtering techniques to acquire the unmeasurable internal states of the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) in order to realize the widely adopted control scheme, which involves the inaccessible state variable - stator flux. Filtering methods to be discussed in this paper include particle filter, unscented Kalman filter, and extended Kalman filter, where their mathematical algorithms are presented, their implementations in the DFIG wind farm connected to complex power systems are studied, and their performances are compared. The whole power system network topology is taken into consideration for the state estimation, but only local phasor measurement unit measurement data are required. The purpose of using different stochastic filtering techniques to estimate dynamic states of DFIG in power systems is to resolve the long-lasting issue of the unavailability of DFIG internal states used in the DFIG controller design.
