Adaptive Nonlinear Control of A Synchronous Generator

Abstract

In this work, an adaptive nonlinear control method, was applied to a synchronous generator and we give some initial results on the adaptive control of nonlinear systems which are exactly input-output linearizable by state feedback. Parameters adaptation is used as a technique to robustify the exact cancelation of nonlinear terms, which is called for the linearization technique. The performance of the proposed adaptive nonlinear control scheme is demonstrated by simulation results. These results show that the proposed method achieves the same high dynamic performance as vector control.
