Popis: Wind energy conversion systems have been attracting wide attention as a renewable energy source. To extract maximum energy from the wind turbine, an efficient controller plays an important role. The target of this paper is to develop a Linear Model Predictive Control (MPC) to maximize power production according to wind speed. Firstly, the DFIG wind turbine model was linearized at a specific operating point by using the Jacobian method. The MPC then was developed based on the linearized model where wind speed equal to 8 m/s is chosen as its operating area. The controller was tested to deal with different wind speed. A presence of a certain range of wind speed errors was included to evaluate the controller efficiency. Numerical simulation was done by using MATLAB software. The proposed controller has shown great performances when within its operating area but downgraded when moving away from its operating area. Imprecise wind speed measurement has shown a significant impact on the controller efficiency.
