Fault Detection and Isolation Using KalmanFilter Bank For A WindTurbine Generator
Objective
To tackle the problem of current sensor Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) of a doubly fed induction generator in wind turbine. The detection and the isolation of multiple and simultaneous sensor faults will be treated using a Kalman filter bank Generalized Observer Scheme Dedicated Observer Scheme
DFIG
The doubly feed induction generator (DFIG) is one of the most used drive In the wind power industry low cost simplicity of maintenance reliability
When a fault occurs, it must be detected as soon as possible, even where all observed signals remain in their allowable limits. The fault must then be located and its cause identified This aspect becomes more and more investigated because of the construction of high capacity offshore wind parks.
The control system operates with the information of the system provided by sensors, which subjected to faults Previous Method For Study of Current sensor Fault and Voltage sensor Fault is Luenberger observers weve proposed an observer scheme base on Kalman filter to diagnosticate the current sensor fault of a DFIG because of its discrete property which is convenient for the testing on a dSPACE test bench as well as for a real-time implementation in the future
The implementation of Kalman filter could be divided in two steps Prediction step and Correction step the diagnostic scheme with Kalman filter is capable to detect the fault but it is unable to locate the fault. To resolve this problem, a filter bank will be used in the next.

Conclusion
In this paper, weve treated the problem of current sensor Fault Detection and Isolation of a doubly feed induction generator in wind turbine. First the use of a Kalman filter to detect sensor fault has been illustrated. Detection and the isolation of multiple sensor faults was addressed using the Kalman filter bank in a Generalized Observer Scheme. The simultaneous sensor faults was tackled by the Dedicated Observer Scheme.
future work concentrates on the FDI problem for other sensors of wind turbine (voltage, wind speed for example)
