Design and control of a quasi-Z-source inverter based for wind power generation using PMSG

In this paper, a complete quasi-Z-source inverter based for wind power generation system is modelled and analysed. The overall system is introduced in two main configurations, one is open loop and the other is closed loop. The open loop system is designed in such away to extract the maximum wind energy from the open loop configuration using the modified Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation based on the maximum constant boost of the quasi Z source inverter. The closed loop system is used to control the dc link voltage. Results extracted from both cases are described, analyzed and compared. A 600 watt Permanent Magnet synchronous generator is used to generate the output power from the wind turbine. A complete MATLAB simulation for the analysis and design is introduced. A hardware setup of the wind turbine emulator coupled with the Permanent Magnet synchronous generator based on the Z-source inverter and controlled by the DSP TMS320F28335 is under construction for the hardware verification.
