Abstract :
This work examines the memory-based method for variable speed control of wind turbines. The main idea behind this approach is to use certain gathered information such as past and recent rotor speed as well as previous control experience to generate new control action. Both theoretical and simulation studies show that this method is able to ensure stable tracking of rotor speed under modeling uncertainties and external disturbances
