Real Time Study of P&O MPPT Control for Small Wind PMSG Turbine Systems Using Arduino Microcontroller ☆

Abstract Most papers discuss the simulation of the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) control “Perturb and Observe” (P&O), while its realization and execution in a control card remains a big challenge. Others have performed the implementation of this algorithm on a control card such as, DSPACE, FPGA, but these are relatively more expensive compared to Arduino boards. The objective of this paper is to study experimentally the optimization of a PMSG wind turbine connected to a DC-DC converter (Boost) and a resistive load. For this, tests were conducted to determine the law of open loop control (power versus the duty cycle for different values of wind speed and load). The experimental results obtained using our method are promising: the power gets with efficiency its optimal point of functioning.
