I. I NTRODUCTION
MICROGRID is a part of a distribution network with
at least one distributed energy source which can operate
independently as an island when necessary [1]. DFIG based
wind generation is an attractive option for sustainable energy
integration in microgrids. In microgrids with significant wind
energy penetration, wind speed variations translate to fluctuations in electrical variables and contributes towards power
quality issues [2], [3] such as variations in bus voltages [4],
[5]. As noted in IEEE 1547, such fluctuations can disrupt the
normal operation of voltage regulation devices, therefore the
coupling of a controllable reactive power source with the wind
energy system is proposed to flatten out the voltage variations
[6]. Since direct voltage regulation by wind energy systems
may interfere with other voltage regulation devices, it is
prohibited by IEEE 1547. A suitable method of reactive power
management of DFIG wind systems based on the voltage
sensitivity analysis is proposed in [7]. The method eliminates
the potential for interference with other voltage regulation
devices by locally adjusting the DFIG reactive power based
on voltage sensitivity analysis. However, the method in [7] is
based on the classical control and performed by the decoupled

the tower structure. In three-bladed turbines, power pulsations
occur at what is known as 3p frequency, and it is the same
frequency at which blades pass by the tower. In [19], the FAST
(Fatigue, Aerodynamics, Structures, and Turbulence) package
is proposed to model the wind turbine while considering a
complex flexible structure based on finite element methods
[20]. Reference [21] neglects the tower shadow and wind shear
for large wind farms, but for a single turbine it suggests the
addition of 3p pulsations to the turbine mechanical torque.
A suitable model of 3p pulsations is developed by [22]. The
model computes torque variations for a three-bladed turbine
including the effects of wind shear and tower shadow. The
output torque computed with this model (turbine parameters
in Appendix) is shown in Fig. 4 from which one can note the
drop in output torque three times per revolution.
A. Aerodynamics model
Turbsim is a precise wind model developed by the national
renewable energy lab (NREL). It is a stochastic, full field, turbulent wind simulator that has been developed for simulation
of a full-field flow for turbulence structures [18]. An example
of wind speed produced by Turbsim for 100 seconds is shown
in Fig. 3. A simplified aerodynamic model is normally used
when the electrical behavior of the wind turbine is the main
interest of study, but wind shear and tower shadow phenomena
influence the output voltage [4], [5]. The term wind shear is
used to describe the variation of wind speed with height, and
the term tower shadow describes the redirection of wind due to

3) Design of uc (x), control system robustness: In the presence of disturbance and uncertainty, two terms of system
dynamic drift cancelation and manifold intersection reaching
(ua (x), ub (x)) are not enough to guarantee the operation of
the system on the manifold intersection. Therefore, the third
term of the controller (uc (x)) is synthesized for the robustness
of the system. For bounded disturbances and uncertainties ( )
in (11), the Lyapunov function should still move toward zero,
i.e. (W < 0). This implies:
S T S
S T sgn(S)
(33)
Based on (11) and by using (19), (22), (25), (30) and (33),
The time derivative of the Lyapunov function is as follows:

of the time derivative of the selected Lyapunov function (W )
