The paper presents a super-twisting sliding mode (STSM) regulator with neural networks (NN) of direct power command (DPC) for controlling the active/reactive power of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) using a two-level space vector pulse width modulation (2L-SVPWM). Traditional DPC strategy with proportional-integral (PI) controllers (DPC-PI) has significantly more active/reactive power ripples, electromagnetic torque ripple, and harmonic distortion (THD) of voltages. The proposed DPC strategy based on a neural super-twisting sliding mode controller (NSTSM) minimizes the THD of stator/rotor voltage, reactive/active power ripple, rotor/stator current, and torque ripples. Also, the DPC method with NSTSM controllers (DPC-NSTSM) is a simple algorithm compared to the vector control method. Both methods are developed and programmed in Matlab on a 1.5MW DFIG-based wind turbines. The simulation studies of the DPC technique with the NSTM algorithm have been performed, and the results of these studies are presented and discussed.
