Harmonic control strategy for universal operation of wind turbine systems

Abstract

Universal wind power generation systems (WPGS) should be able to operate both grid-connected and in island mode without compromising the power quality. The control system of a universal WPGS has to manage the different connections and provide harmonic disturbances compensation. This paper proposes the use of resonant filters for harmonics rejection both in grid-connected and island operation mode but within a different control structure. The proposed control has been tested in simulation.
