The two prevalent s-domain models for current-mode control, the continuous-time model and the unified model, exhibit noticeable differences in their small-signal predictions and therefore have become the subject of comparisons and clarifications. The current letter presents an alternative way of deriving the unified model, thereby providing an additional guide for assessing the validity of the unified model. This letter also presents experimental data that support the accuracy of the unified model.

In this paper, a nonlinear controller is proposed to manage the rotational speed of a full-variable Squirrel Cage Induction Generator wind turbine. This control scheme improves upon tractional vector controllers by removing the need for a rotor flux observer. Additionally, the proposed controller manages the performance through turbulent wind conditions by accounting for unmeasurable wind torque dynamics. This model-based approach utilizes a current-based control in place of traditional voltage-mode control and is validated using a Lyapunov-based stability analysis. The proposed scheme is compared to a linear vector controller through simulation results. These results demonstrate that the proposed controller is far more robust to wind turbulence than traditional control schemes.
