    A Novel Frequency Regulation Control Method for Deloaded Wind Turbines
    Karimpour, M ; Schmid, R ; Tan, Y (IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2020)
    Abstract The recent proliferation of converter-based power generating systems used within renewable energy sources has increased the need to consider how renewable energy sources, including wind turbines, may participate in ancillary services to ensure the security of the power grid. In this paper, we discuss a modern control methodology known as exact output regulation (EOR) and investigate its application to the problem of wind turbine provision of grid frequency support services. The EOR method assumes that both wind preview information from LIDAR measurements and the power demand curve from the grid are available in the design of the turbine control law. Our simulation study will compare the performance of EOR with a baseline controller, for the tracking of a time-varying power demand curve. Our work focuses on region 3 wind signals, however it has the capability to extend to other wind speed region. The simulations will employ the FAST simulator for a 5MW wind turbine, with wind signals generated by TurbSim. The simulations show that the LIDAR-enhanced EOR method has the potential to substantially improve power demand tracking performance, relative to a baseline controller.

    Extremum Seeking Control with Sporadic Packet Transmission for Networked Control Systems
    Premaratne, U ; Halgamuge, S ; Tan, Y ; Mareels, IMY (IEEE, 2020-06)
    Extremum Seeking Control (ESC) is a data-driven optimization technique that can steer a dynamic plant towards an extremum of an unknown but measurable, input to steady-state map. In the context of Networked Control Systems (NCS) a new implementation method for ESC inspired by the well known Luus-Jaakola algorithm is proposed. The main motivation is to minimize the communication burden associated with the search phase of ESC. In the proposed method the controller only requires a notification of a change registered at the sensor, rather than the full information available at the sensor. This event based approach leads to sporadic packet transmission. In addition the proposed method is able to directly account for constraints whilst seeking for the desired extremum. The constraints may be of the inequality or equality type. The algorithm's behavior is illustrated on a networked water pump control system.
