Abstract

Wind energy is essential for promoting sustainability and renewable power solutions. However, ensuring stability and consistent performance in DFIG-based wind turbine systems (WTSs) remains challenging due to rapid wind speed variations, grid disturbances, and parameter uncertainties. These fluctuations result in power instability, increased overshoot, and prolonged settling times, negatively impacting grid compliance and system efficiency. Conventional proportional-integral (PI) controllers are simple and effective in steady-state conditions, but they lack adaptability in dynamic situations. Similarly, artificial intelligence (AI)-based controllers, such as fuzzy logic controllers (FLCs) and artificial neural networks (ANNs), improve adaptability but suffer from high computational demands and training complexity. To address these limitations, this paper presents a hybrid adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)-PI controller for DFIG-based WTS. The proposed controller integrates fuzzy logic adaptability with neural network-based learning, allowing real-time optimization of control parameters. Implemented within the rotor-side converter (RSC) and grid-side converter (GSC), ANFIS enhances reactive power management, grid compliance, and overall system stability. The system was tested under a step wind speed signal varying from 10 m/s to 12 m/s to evaluate its robustness. The simulation results confirmed that the ANFIS-PI controller significantly improved performance compared with the conventional PI controller. Specifically, it reduced rotor speed overshoot by 3%, torque overshoot by 12.5%, active power overshoot by 2%, and DC link voltage overshoot by 20%. Additionally, the ANFIS-PI controller shortened settling time by 50% for rotor speed, by 25% for torque, by 33% for active power, and by 16.7% for DC link voltage, ensuring faster stabilization, enhanced dynamic response, and greater efficiency. These improvements establish the ANFIS-PI controller as an advanced, computationally efficient, and scalable solution for enhancing the reliability of DFIG-based WTS, facilitating seamless integration of wind energy into modern power grids.
