the control system will use this feature to maximize energy extracted from the wind.

At high wind speeds, the power can easily be limited to its nominal value by adjusting
the pitch angle. Pitch control methods are : Passive stall, Active stall and Pitch to feather

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) is concentrated. The purpose of
this study is to optimize and control the output power delivered to the battery system.
Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator has some advantages such as high

research works are aimed at towards designing of permanent magnet synchronous
generator based wind energy conversion system with maximum power point tracking.
there are three MPPT algorithm has been developed for the Permanent Magnet

in the first stage of the study, the voltage and current from the input of the boost
converter is measured. Then the power from the measured voltage and current is
calculated. After that, the rate of change of power and voltage is calculated. The rate of
change of power and voltage are input to the fuzzy logic MPPT control. Then the output
of the fuzzy logic control (duty cycle) is fed to pulse generation unit. The output of the
pulse generation unit is given to boost converter for tracking the maximum power form
the wind generator. The flowchart of the system which is used in this paper is shown in
figure 2.

is negative small, then output of the fuzzy is the positive medium. In this figure the N
means is negative and P means is Positive. B means is Big, S means is Small, M means
is medium. V and P is input of the fuzzy, which getting from input side of the boost
converter. For example in this figure if V =NB and P =NB then, U=PB. The Change

Perturb and Observe algorithm contains basic feedback structure and little information
parameters which is obtained from the measurement device. In P&O technique, a
perturbation is applied to the module voltage periodically and the corresponding output
power is compared with that at the previous perturbing cycle. In the algorithm a slight
perturbation is introduce to the system. This perturbation makes changes in the power of
the module. If the power increases due to the perturbation, then the perturbation is
