Centralised power control of wind farm with doubly fed induction generators
TLDR
In this article, the authors present a control strategy for a doubly fed induction generator with a hierarchical structure with both a central control level and a local control level, where the central wind farm control level controls the power production of the whole farm by sending out reference power signals to each individual wind turbine, while the local wind turbine control level ensures that the reference power signal send by the central level is reached.About:

Participation of Doubly Fed Induction Wind Generators in System Frequency Regulation
R.G. de Almeida,João Peças Lopes +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a control scheme that allows doubly fed induction wind generators (DFIWG) to participate effectively in system frequency regulation. But, the control strategy defined at the wind generator to supply primary frequency regulation capability exploits a combination of control of the static converters and pitch control, adjusting the rotor speed and the active power according to the deloaded optimum power extraction curve.

Automatic generation control of a wind farm with variable speed wind turbines
TL;DR: In this article, a new integrated control system of a wind farm according to the utility manager's requirements is presented, which is based on two control levels: a supervisory system controls active and reactive power of the whole wind farm by sending out set points to all wind turbines, and a machine control system ensures that set points at the wind turbine level are reached.
