In this paper, an inner loop for the control and frequency regulation of the doubly fed induction generator connected to a dc link through a diode bridge on the stator is presented. In this system, the stator is directly connected to the dc link using a diode bridge, and the rotor is fed by only a pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) converter. If compared to the DFIG connected to an ac grid, this system uses one PWM inverter less and a much less expensive diode bridge. Thus, the cost of power electronics is reduced. The application in mind is for dc networks such as dispersed generation grids and microgrids. These networks use several elements that should work together. Usually, these elements are connected with each other by power electronic devices in a common dc link. This paper presents a control system for the inner control loop in order to regulate the torque and the stator frequency. Simulation and experimental results show that the system works properly and is able to keep the stator frequency near the rated value of the machine.
