  • Publication number: 20230204786
    Abstract: The invention is a method for determining wind speed components by using a placed LiDAR sensor (1). For this method, the wind speed components are first approximated by using the signals from the LiDAR sensor (1). These approximations are used in a wind signal model, and then used in a non-stationary Kalman filter (KAL), to construct filtered measurement signals. The filtered measurement signals are then used to reconstruct (REC) the wind speed components.

  • Patent number: 9790924
    Abstract: The invention is a method for controlling and/or monitoring a wind turbine 1 equipped with a LIDAR sensor 2. Control and/or monitoring provides an estimation of the wind speed at the rotor obtained an estimator and a LIDAR sensor 2. The estimator of the wind speed at the rotor is constructed from a representation of the wind, a model of the LIDAR sensor and a model of wind propagation.
