Abstract (EN): This paper presents a new integrated model for the simulation of wind power generation systems. This model is not only more accurate but also computationally acceptable. It uses pulse width modulation by space vector modulation associated with sliding mode for controlling the converters. Power factor control at the output of the converters is considered in the model. We present a case study showing the harmonic behavior for the current injected in the electrical network, computed by the Fast Fourier Transform. Finally, we draw comparative conclusions between the performance of the matrix and Multi-level converters.
