Abstract
This paper investigates combined feedback-feedforward control of a wind turbine using a blade-mounted telescope LiDAR sensor to measure the inflow wind speed. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the controller performance with fixed telescope parameters compared to the wind speed dependent dynamically changing telescope parameters. First the telescope parameters for both cases are determined, then the robust feedback controllers are extended with an inverse-based feedforward individual pitch and trailing edge flap controller to alleviate the 1P and 2P loads of the flapwise blade root bending moments. A minor performance degradation is observed with the fixed telescope parameters in comparison to the dynamic telescope parameters.
