Blade pitch angle control, as an indispensable part of wind turbine, plays a part in getting the desired power. In this regard, several pitch angle control methods have been proposed in order to limit aerodynamic power gained from the wind turbine system (WTS) in the high-windspeed regions. In this paper, intelligent control methods are applied to control the blade pitch angle of doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) WTS. Conventional fuzzy logic and neuro-fuzzyparticle swarm optimization controllers are used to get the appropriate wind power, where fuzzy inference system is based on fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm. It reduces the extra repetitive rules in fuzzy structure which in turn would reduce the complexity in neuro-fuzzy network with maximizing efficiently. In comparing the controllers at any given wind speed, adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems controller involving both mechanical power and rotor speed revealed better performance to maintain the aerodynamic power and rotor speed at the rated value. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulation results for a 9 MW DFIG WTS.
