In Conventional Combined Vector and Direct Controls (VC-DTC) of induction motor, stator current is very rich in harmonic components. It leads to high torque ripple of induction motor in high and low speed region. To solve this problem, a control method based on the concept of fuzzy logic approach is used. The control scheme proposed uses stator current error as variable. Through the fuzzy logic controller rules, the choice of voltage space vector is optimized and then torque and speed are controlled successfully with a less ripple level in torque response, which improve the system's performance. Simulation results trough MATLAB/SIMULINK${(R)}$ software gave results that justify the claims.

This paper presents a sliding mode controller (SMC) to directly control the active and reactive powers of a doubly ffd induction generator (DFIG) for wind turbines. Sliding-mode control (SMC) and space-vector modulation (SVM) are combined to ensure high-performance operation. SMC scheme is designed to provide robust and fast power controls without frame transformation and current controller used in the conventional FOC drive. Simulation results and experimental results demonstrate that proposed methods preserve the effectiveness and robustness during variations of active and reactive power.
