N2 - This paper presents the modelling and simulation of a push-pull DC-DC converter in a wind energy conversion system (WECS). The push-pull DC-DC converter has several advantages over other converters. A maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method for a wind turbine with variable speed and a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) is also presented. Using fuzzy logic control and the Perturbation and Observation (P&O) technique, the topology of a push-pull converter is simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The results of the simulation show that the MPPT system using a fuzzy logic for control controller outperforms the Perturb and Observe method in terms of responsiveness to changing conditions and minimal oscillation.
