Due to the intermittent nature of wind, there exists a major disparity between the power generation from the wind and the demand of electricity. Hence, a sophisticated maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control paradigm must be formulated for maximizing the power extraction from the wind. This research article focuses on the formulation of a nonlinear fast dynamic terminal sliding mode control (FDTSMC)-based MPPT strategy for optimizing the power extraction from a 3kW, variable speed, fixed-pitch wind energy conversion system equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous generator. The proposed MPPT strategy is compared with the benchmark fast terminal sliding mode control, conventional sliding mode control, feedback linearization control and proportional integral derivative control-based MPPT strategies under a stochastic wind speed profile. The proposed paradigm has been found superior in its tracking performance by converging the output tracking error to zero in a finite time, realizing a high precision performance, offering fast dynamic response, reducing the chattering to a minute level and guaranteeing global robustness. The superior performance and effectiveness of the proposed FDTSMC-based MPPT control paradigm is tested and validated through extensive MATLAB/Simulink simulations.
