Single Stage Energy Conversion through an RBFN Controller based Boost Type Vienna Rectifier in the Wind Turbine System

This paper presents, a Radial Basis Function Network insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(RBFN); controller based boost type Vienna Rectifier, which is engaged for a single stage energy conversion in the wind turbine system insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(WTS); over two-stage energy conversion insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Diode bridge rectifier + Boost converter);. The boost type Vienna Rectifier converts AC power into DC power with increased voltage level in a single stage conversion. It is having the benefits of low voltage stress across switches insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(50% of DC-link voltage);, reduced harmonics, sinusoidal input current shaping, and improved power factor etc. This sort of AC/DC conversion is adequate for low voltage DC distribution, telecommunication systems, and data centers etc. In this, an RBFN controller is engaged for the fast dynamic response over the conventional converter controllers. This paper presents the comparative analysis of single stage boost type Vienna Rectifier on two-stage conversion for 400V/1kW wind system and results are validated in MATLAB/Simulink
