Abstract

This paper presents a literature review analyzing four topics concerning wind systems for micro-generation: system topologies, system modeling, power converters design, and power converter controllers. The review also reveals the open research problems in the literature, and the opportunities to improve commonly adopted solutions.

Keywords: Converters control, converters design, literature review, power converters, wind generators
