Design of PSO Based PI Controller for Wind Turbine Systems

This paper implements a strategy to obtain the proportional-integral (PI) optimal operating point and find the description of the stability regions in the parameters space. In order to do this, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm has been used in this study. The intelligent algorithm which is artificial learning mechanism could find optimal operating points and generates the function of the best operating parameter in the PI control stability region. Then the graphical method can provide boundaries of the PI type controller space for close-loop wind turbine generator (WTG) systems. The proposed techniques are presented by using simulation results to the WTG model.
