[email protected] Abstract: This paper presents an enhancement method to improve the performance of the DC- link voltage loop regulation in a Doubly-Fed Induction Generator (DFIG)- based wind energy converter. An intelligent, combined control approach based on a metaheuristics-tuned Second-Order Citation: Alhato, M.M.; Sliding Mode (SOSM) controller and an adaptive fuzzy-scheduled Extended State Observer (ESO) is Ibrahim, M.N.; Rezk, H.; Bouallègue, proposed and successfully applied. The proposed fuzzy gains-scheduling mechanism is performed S. An Enhanced DC-Link Voltage to adaptively tune and update the bandwidth of the ESO while disturbances occur.
