Abstract:
The invention converts wave energy into electrical energy. A device moved by wave action is coupled to an electric machine for generating electrical power and to drive the device to improve conversion of wave action into electrical power. The conversion of the wave energy is improved through real-time estimation of forces exerted by waves on a pendulum axis to estimate the force to be applied to the device by the electric machine acting as an electrical motor.
