This paper presents the application of a Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) to regulate the voltage of a Self Excited Induction Generator (SEIG) driven by Wind Energy Conversion Schemes (WECS). The proposed FLC is used to tune the integral gain (KI) of a Proportional plus Integral (PI) controller. Two types of controls, for the generator and for the wind turbine, using a FLC algorithm, are introduced in this paper. The voltage control is performed to adapt the terminal voltage via self excitation. The frequency control is conducted to adjust the stator frequency through tuning the pitch angle of the WECS blades. Both controllers utilize the Fuzzy technique to enhance the overall dynamic performance.  The simulation result depicts a better dynamic response for the system under study during the starting period, and the load variation. The percentage overshoot, rising time and oscillation are better with the fuzzy controller than with the PI controller type.

Background: The output voltage frequency for the previously proposed "phase hopping" AC-AC frequency conversion technology is determined by the law that the number of output voltage cycles is reduced by one relative to the power frequency in a large cycle containing six jumps. According to the law, only a limited number of output frequencies, such as 37.5 Hz, 42.86 Hz and 45 Hz are found. Due to the large spacing between the output frequencies, the "phase hopping" frequency conversion technology is difficult to put into practical use. Methods: In this paper, the law of the output frequency control is generalized so that the number of output cycles in a large cycle is reduced by n relative to the power frequency. The analysis shows that the appropriate selection of large cycles, including the number of power frequency cycles and the value of n, can find more frequencies to be used. Reducing the interval between the output frequencies within 1Hz. Results: The analysis results were verified in simulation by MATLAB, and the harmonics and the feasibility of the actual application were analyzed. Conclusion: Finally, an experimental platform was built and an experimental analysis was carried out. The experimental results show that the theoretical and simulation analyses are correct.
