Abstract: This paper presents a novel control strategy employing the artificial neural network-based direct torque control (DTC) strategy and direct power control (DPC) strategy for permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG)-based wind energy conversion system (WECS). The Aeolos 3 kW wind system ratings are considered in this paper for real time system validation. The proposed control strategy combines artificial neural network (ANN)-based DTC as machine side control (MSC) strategy and ANN-based DPC as grid side control (GSC) strategy in order to track the maximum power and to regulate the active power, respectively. To generate the switching pulse for the converter in generator side and grid side, a neural network-based technique is employed. Furthermore, the DC link voltage is optimised using the GSC topology. The proposed controller provides a stable voltage and power which is an effective solution for grid integration and constant power flow from the generator system to the grid system. The proposed coordinate control strategy is validated using MATLAB/Simulink software to analysis the working condition. The experimental test bench is implemented using dSPACE to study the real time analysis of the proposed control strategy.
