Summary:The electrical characteristics of an isolated
induction-generator-based system are improved through the association
with a voltage-source pulsewidth modulation (PWM) inverter. The
electronic converter allows the achievement of a better system behavior
in many aspects: voltage regulation, frequency stabilization, and
reactive power compensation. The system operation strategy consists of
maintaining constant synchronous frequency at the induction generator
via an association with a PWM inverter. The system power balance and the
generator voltage regulation may be accomplished by two different means:
through the rotor speed regulation, or by sending part of the energy
stored in the inverter DC side to the grid through a single-phase line,
in case the rotor speed is not regulated and a single-phase grid
connection is available. The obtained results demonstrated the system is
stable, robust, and an effective source of regulated three-phase
voltages
