Application of STATCOM to improve the LVRT of DFIG during DC-link capacitor failure

In doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind energy conversion systems (WECS), the DFIG is interfaced to the AC network through grid side voltage source converter (GSC) and rotor side voltage source converter (RSC). The RSC and the GSC are coupled by a DC-link capacitor. The capacitor is used...
