Takagi-Sugeno based model reference control for wind turbine systems in frequency containment scenarios

In this paper, a model-reference control scheme for wind turbine systems in the Takagi-Sugeno framework is proposed. This work deals with the model reference control approach to provide wind turbines’ fast frequency response (FFR) in fluctuating wind conditions. The proposed scheme is applied to a generic wind turbine model for the partial and full-load region. The controller coefficients are calculated using a set of proposed Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) conditions. The design process is described in detail, including a controller performance in the wind turbine’s partial and full load region.
