Abstract: In the field of optimizing wind system control approaches and enhancing the quality of electricity generated on the grid, this research makes a fresh addition. The Sliding Mode Control (SMC) technique produces some fairly intriguing outcomes, but it has a severe flaw in the oscillations (phenomenon of reluctance: chattering) that diminish the system’s efficiency. In this paper, an AST (adaptive super twisting) approach is proposed to control the wind energy conversion system of the permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG), which is connected to the electrical system via two converters (grid-side and machine-side) and a capacitor serves as a DC link between them. This research seeks to regulate the generator and grid-side converter to monitor the wind rate reference given by the MPPT technique in order to eliminate the occurrence of the chattering phenomenon. With the help of this approach, precision and stability flaws will be resolved, and the wind system will perform significantly better in terms of productivity. To evaluate the performance of each control in terms of reference tracking, response time, stability, and the quality of the signal sent to the network under different wind conditions, a detailed description of the individual controls is given, preceded by a simulation in the Matlab/Simulink environment. The simulation study validates the control method and demonstrates that the AST control based on the Lyapunov stability theory provides excellent THD and power factor results. This work is completed by a comparative analysis of the other commands to identify the effect on the PMSG wind energy conversion system.
