This paper is concerned with behavior analysis and improvement of wind turbines with Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) when using a new fractional-order control strategy during wind variations. A doubly fed induction generator, two types of variable frequency power electronic converters and two input wind waveforms are considered. A fractional-order control strategy is proposed for the wind turbine control unit. Output parameters of the wind turbine are drawn by simulations using MATLAB/Simulink for both fractional-order and integer-order (classic) control systems and a complete comparison between these two strategies has been presented. Results show a better operation when using fractional-order control system.
