Description
Summary:Disturbance accommodating control has received considerable interest in the wind turbine research community for its ability to explicitly account for disturbances in the incoming wind field. Early work was based around estimating the disturbance from feedback information, while more recent research into disturbance accommodating control (as well as other feedforward control laws) has considered disturbance measurements produced by lidar. This work compares the two methods (estimating and measuring the disturbance) while keeping all other aspects of the controller the same. By doing so, we shed light on the performance improvements that can be attained using preview disturbance measurements of the wind.
