This paper presents a novel finite position set-phase locked loop (FPS-PLL) for sensorless control of surface-mounted permanent-magnet synchronous generators (PMSGs) in variable-speed wind turbines. The proposed FPS-PLL is based on the finite control set-model predictive control concept, where a finite number of rotor positions are used to estimate the back electromotive force of the PMSG. Then, the estimated rotor position, which minimizes a certain cost function, is selected to be the optimal rotor position. This eliminates the need of a fixed-gain proportional-integral controller, which is commonly utilized in the conventional PLL. The performance of the proposed FPS-PLL has been experimentally investigated and compared with that of the conventional one using a 14.5 kW PMSG with a field-oriented control scheme utilized as the generator control strategy. Furthermore, the robustness of the proposed FPS-PLL is investigated against PMSG parameters variations.
