Abstract :
This paper deals with model predictive control (MPC) of wind turbines with doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). MPC is applied to the blade speed control, which aims at maximum power extraction from the wind. An MPC controller uses the future prediction of wind speed, and the performance improvement by this preview action is investigated through numerical simulation.
