This paper proposes a high-order sliding mode control (HO-SMC) with the super-twisting (ST) algorithm for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and grid-connected wind energy conversion system (WECS), based on squirrel-cage induction generator (SCIG). The main features of this control strategy are attenuation of the chattering phenomenon inherent in first-order sliding mode control and its robustness against external and internal disturbances encountered by the wind power system. The simulation is carried out under SimPowerSystems of MATLAB/Simulink to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of the proposed control compared with conventional and fuzzy logic proportional-integral (PI) controllers for three different scenarios of disturbances, a fluctuating wind speed, a grid voltage drop, and parametric variations.

This paper deals with a nonlinear control algorithm based on a sliding mode theory to reach the maximum power point tracking of a variable-speed wind energy conversion system. The proposed method allows us to combine the sliding mode and fractional-order theory. The fractional-order component of the control law is introduced by a sliding surface. In order to validate this controller, fractional and integer sliding modes are developed. The proposed fractional-order sliding mode control law is tested in a Simulink/Matlab environment. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, suppression of the chattering phenomenon and robustness of the proposed controller compared to the integer sliding mode control law.
