This paper presents a novel method for state estimation in doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs) using an Extended Kalman Filter. In this work, the conventional nonlinear state space model of a DFIG has been augmented with additional states in order to make rotor position and speed estimates more robust to disturbances. The effectiveness of this method has been tested for various transient cases using MATLAB/Simulink.
