Abstract: With the aim of meeting the power demands, considering the economical and environmental factors, wind energy [11] conversion is slowly garnering interest in the form of a desirable source of renewable energy. In this work, a grid connected wind power generation approach employing a doubly fed induction generator with a direct AC-AC matrix converter[4] is introduced. The objectives of this research work include: To model and then simulate the operation of a doubly fed induction generator. The analysis uses a space vector modulated [1] matrix converter for controlling the rotor current. The matrix converter-based rotor current control approach [9] is focused. The system facilitates the optimal speed tracking for capture of maximum energy from the wind and high performance active and reactive power control utilizing the RST regulator. Finally, the simulation results achieved, for various operating points, are studied, showing the system’s good control performances.
