Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This paper proposes a novel integral sliding mode control (ISMC) scheme based on numerically solving a state-dependent Ricatti equation (SDRE), nonlinear feedback control for wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) with permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSGs). Unlike the conventional ISMC, the proposed control system is designed with nonlinear near optimal feedback control part to take into account nonlinearities of the WECSs. The Taylor series are used to approximate the solutions of SDRE. More specifically, the nonlinear optimal feedback control has been obtained by solving continuous algebraic Ricatti and Lyapunov equations. Sliding variables are designed such that reaching phase is eliminated and stability is guaranteed. The proposed control method equipped with high-order observer can guarantee more superior results than linear techniques such as linear quadratic regulator (LQR), conventional ISMC, and first-order sliding-mode control (SMC) method. Increasing the number of terms of the Taylor's series of the proposed control law provides better approximation, therefore the performance is improved. However, this increases the computational burden. The effectiveness of the control method is validated via simulations in MATLAB/Simulink under nominal parameters and model uncertainties.
