Abstract
In order to improve the energy capture efficiency of direct-drive wave power generation (DDWEG) systems and enhance the robustness of the reference power tracking control, a Fourier coefficient-based energy capture (FCBEC) and a position sensorless disturbance suppression (PSDS) control strategy are proposed. For energy capture, FCBEC is proposed to construct the objective function by maximizing the average power over a period of time and expanding the variables in the Fourier basis when the maximum power is captured, which is used as the basis for obtaining the reference trajectory. To address the limitations of the mechanical encoder, the position sensorless technique, based on a sliding mode observer (SMO), is used in the power tracking control, and the position information is obtained through an inverse tangent function. The perturbation caused by the inverse electromotive force error in the system is theoretically analyzed. A full-order terminal sliding mode approach is employed to design a current controller that suppresses the perturbation and ensures accurate tracking of the reference current. Simulation results show that the ocean-wave energy capture strategy proposed in this paper can make the energy captured by the PTO reach the optimal value under the impedance matching condition, and that the response speed and robustness of the full-order terminal sliding mode are better than the traditional PI control.
