  • Lidar-based multivariable feedforward control of wind turbines
    Patent number: 10844838
    Abstract: Summarizing, the present invention relates to a control system for a wind turbine including—a feed forward controller having a rotor effective wind speed of the wind turbine as an input parameter and having a plurality of output parameters—a feedback controller wherein an input parameter is based on a rotor speed or a generator speed of the wind turbine and having at least one output parameter and wherein o one output parameter of the feed forward controller is provided to the feedback controller as an input parameter and o another output parameter of the feed forward controller is used as a feed-forward control parameter for controlling the wind turbine and o one output parameter of the feedback controller is used as a feed-back control parameter for controlling the wind turbine, as well as a wind turbine and a control method.
