    [0001] The present invention relates to the field of renewable energies and relates more particularly to the measurement of the resource of wind turbines, the wind, in wind turbine control objectives (orientation, torque control and speed). A wind turbine makes it possible to transform the kinetic energy of the wind into electrical or mechanical energy. For the conversion of wind into electrical energy, it consists of the following elements: a mast for placing a rotor at a height sufficient to allow its movement (necessary for wind turbines with horizontal axis) or to place this rotor at a height allowing it to be driven by a stronger and more regular wind than at ground level.
    [0002] The mast usually houses some of the electrical and electronic components (modulator, control, multiplier, generator, ...); a nacelle mounted at the top of the mast, housing mechanical components, pneumatic, some electrical and electronic components, necessary for the operation of the machine. The nacelle can turn to steer the machine in the right direction; a rotor, fixed to the nacelle, comprising several blades (generally three) and the nose of the wind turbine. The rotor is driven by the wind energy, it is connected by a mechanical shaft directly or indirectly (via a gearbox system and mechanical shaft) to an electric machine (electric generator ...) which converts the energy collected in electrical energy. The rotor is potentially equipped with control systems such as variable angle blades or aerodynamic brakes; a transmission, consisting of two axes (mechanical shaft of the rotor and mechanical shaft of the electric machine) connected by a transmission (gearbox). Since the early 1990s, there has been a renewed interest in wind energy, particularly in the European Union, where the annual growth rate is around 20 `Vo. This growth is attributed to the inherent possibility of producing electricity without carbon emissions. To support this growth, wind turbine performance must continue to improve. The prospect of increasing wind power generation requires the development of efficient production tools, and advanced control tools to improve machine performance. Wind turbines are designed to produce electricity as cheaply as possible. As a result, wind turbines are typically constructed to achieve maximum performance at a wind speed of approximately 15 m / s. It is not necessary to design wind turbines that maximize their performance at higher wind speeds, which are infrequent. In case of wind speeds higher than 15 m / s, it is necessary to lose some of the additional energy contained in the wind in order to avoid damaging the wind turbine. All wind turbines are therefore designed with a power control system. For this power regulation, controllers are designed for variable speed wind turbines. The objectives of the controllers are to maximize the electrical power recovered, to minimize rotor speed fluctuations and to minimize fatigue and extreme moments of the structure (blades, mast and platform). To optimize control, it is important to know the wind speed at the rotor of the wind turbine. For this, different techniques have been developed. According to a first technique, the use of an anemometer makes it possible to estimate a wind speed at a point, but this imprecise technology does not make it possible to measure the whole of a wind field or to know the three-dimensional components of the wind. wind speed. According to a second technique, it is possible to use a LIDAR sensor (acronym for the English expression "light detection and ranging" that can be translated by laser remote sensing). LIDAR is a remote sensing or optical measurement technology based on the analysis of the properties of a beam sent back to its transmitter. This method is used in particular to determine the distance to an object by means of a pulsed laser. Unlike radar based on a similar principle, LIDAR uses visible or infrared light instead of radio waves. The distance to an object or surface is given by the measurement of the delay between the pulse and the detection of the reflected signal. In the field of wind turbines, the LIDAR sensor is announced as a sensor essential for the proper functioning of large wind turbines, especially as their size and power increases. (today, 5 MW, soon 10 MW). This sensor allows the remote measurement of the wind, allowing first of all to calibrate the wind turbines so that they can provide maximum power (optimization of the power curve). For this calibration step, the sensor can be positioned on the ground and oriented vertically (profile), which allows to measure the wind speed and its direction, as well as the wind gradient according to the altitudes. This application is particularly critical since it allows to know the energy producing resource. This is important for wind projects, as this conditions the financial reliability of the project. A second application is the placement of this sensor on the nacelle of the wind turbine, to measure the wind field in front of the wind turbine being oriented almost horizontally. A priori, the measurement of the wind field at the front of the wind turbine allows to know in advance the turbulence that will meet the wind turbine a few moments later.
    [0003] However, the current techniques of control and monitoring of a wind turbine do not allow to take into account a measurement performed by a LIDAR sensor by accurately estimating the wind speed at the rotor. The object of the invention relates to a method for controlling and / or monitoring a wind turbine, the control and / or monitoring taking into account an estimate of the wind speed at the rotor obtained by means of an estimator and a LIDAR sensor. The rotor wind estimator is constructed from a wind representation, a LIDAR sensor model, and a wind propagation model. The invention makes it possible to know and estimate in advance the three-dimensional components of the wind at the rotor.
    [0004] The method of the invention The invention relates to a method for controlling and / or monitoring a wind turbine equipped with a LIDAR sensor performing a measurement relating to the wind at a point upstream of said wind turbine. For the method, the following steps are carried out: a) a signal corresponding to said measurement of said LIDAR sensor is acquired; b) a wind estimator is constructed at the rotor of the wind turbine using a wind representation, a model of said LIDAR sensor, and a wind propagation model, said wind estimator at the wind level. rotor connecting the sensor signal to the wind speed at the rotor; c) estimating the wind speed at the rotor of said wind turbine by applying said wind estimator at the rotor to said acquired signal; and d) controlling and / or monitoring said wind turbine by said estimated wind speed. According to one embodiment of the invention, said wind turbine is controlled by means of controlling the angle of inclination of the blades of said wind turbine and / or the electric torque of recovery of a generator of said wind turbine. According to one embodiment of the invention, the electric torque of recovery of a generator of said wind turbine is monitored as a function of the estimated wind speed. Advantageously, the representation of the wind is a frequency model, expressed especially in the form of a Von Karman spectrum. Preferably, the wind representation is previously known or determined in real time or determined arbitrarily. Advantageously, said model of said LIDAR sensor depends on at least one measurement angle (0,0) of said LIDAR sensor and a volume characteristic of said LIDAR sensor.
    [0005] Said model of said LIDAR sensor M (v) is written in the frequency domain by a relation of the form 2i evI ° sin (0) W x (V) .- Ad (V) = e L (v) [sin (0) cos (0) sin (0) cos (0) cos (0)] Wy (y) Wz (y). with L (v) the Fourier transform of the function (/ 0 sin (0).) / 0 sin (0) K sin2 (0) / sin (0) fer2 F2,, the focal length of said sensor LIDAR, I iv measurement distance, Set 0 the orientation angles of said sensor LIDAR, tiv the average speed of the wind, F the Rayleigh constant, K a regulating factor, and Worf) ,, W the components of the wind velocity at said measuring point.

In addition, said wind estimator may be constructed at the rotor by means of a windowing method applied to said frequency response of said wind estimator at the rotor.
    [0006] According to the invention, said wind propagation model is constructed according to at least one of the following assumptions: the wind vector is the same on vertical planes perpendicular to the wind direction, wind turbulence propagates at the average wind speed . The invention further relates to a wind turbine, in particular an offshore wind turbine, equipped with a LIDAR sensor whose measurement point is located upstream of said wind turbine. Said wind turbine comprises control means implementing the method of controlling the wind turbine according to one of the preceding claims. Advantageously, said LIDAR sensor is disposed on the nacelle of said wind turbine.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to a method for controlling and / or monitoring a horizontal axis wind turbine on land or at sea ("offshore"), in which the wind turbine is controlled and / or monitored. based on an estimate of the wind speed at the rotor, the wind turbine being equipped with a LIDAR sensor to make this estimate.

These angles are explained in FIG. 4: the angle θ is the angle made by the projection of the axis (A) of the LIDAR in the plane (y, z), and 0 is the angle made by the projection of the axis (A) of the LIDAR in a plane consisting of the x axis and the projection of the axis (A) of the LIDAR in the plane (y, z). r: Rayleigh constant, which can be estimated to be 1570.

This parameter is also called the regularization parameter. : delay representative of the propagation time of the wind vector between the measuring point and the plane of the rotor. The invention relates to a method for estimating the wind on the rotor of a wind turbine equipped with a LIDAR sensor. The LIDAR sensor measures the wind at a measuring point in front of the wind turbine. FIG. 2 represents the different steps of the method according to the invention: 1. Acquisition of the measurement signal (MES) 2. Construction of the wind-level estimator at the rotor (EST) 3. Estimation of the wind at the rotor ( West) 4. Control and / or monitoring of the wind turbine (CON) The method according to the invention makes it possible to reconstruct the wind on the plane of the rotor from the measurement of the LIDAR sensor on a measurement plane. This representation can be used to regulate or supervise the wind turbine. 1. Acquisition of the measurement signal (MES) The LIDAR sensor performs a measurement relating to the wind speed at a measurement point located upstream of the wind turbine (in front of the rotor of the wind turbine). This measurement corresponds to the signal received by the sensor from the measuring point in response to the signal emitted by the LIDAR sensor. Indeed, by interferometry and Doppler effect, a laser signal part emitted by the LIDAR sensor is reflected by the air molecules at the measurement point and also by the aerosols, (dust and microparticles in suspension). The measuring point is defined by the characteristics of the LIDAR sensor, including the focal length, as well as its orientation. This measurement, dependent on the wind speed, is a time and depends on the orientation of the LIDAR sensor. This measurement is acquired in order to be used for the purpose of determining the wind speed at the rotor.
    [0010] FIG. 1 represents a wind turbine 1 equipped with a LIDAR sensor 2 adapted to the method according to the invention. A LIDAR 2 sensor is used to measure the wind speed at a given distance on a PM measurement point. Mounted, for example on the nacelle of the wind turbine 1 which is supposed aligned with the direction of the wind, this sensor 2 measures the impending wind, that is to say the wind that will a priori be met by the wind turbine. The advance knowledge of the wind measurement allows a priori to give a lot of information. In particular, FIG. 1 describes the measurement process: the LIDAR sensor 2 measures the wind on the measurement plane AM, placed in front of the wind turbine 1, a certain measurement characteristic. The projection of the measuring point PM on the plane of the rotor AR is noted PR. The right part of the figure shows an example of wind representation in the horizontal direction as a function of height. There are several types of LIDAR sensors, for example scanned LIDAR or pulsed LIDAR sensors. 2. Construction of the rotor wind estimator (EST) This step builds a wind estimator at the rotor. The wind estimator estimates wind speed (its three components) at the rotor using the LIDAR sensor signal. According to the invention, the rotor wind estimator is constructed using a wind representation, a LIDAR sensor model, and a wind propagation model. This estimator is a finite impulse response filter object, which admits the raw LiDAR measurement at the PM point and returns the wind estimate at the PR point of the rotor plane. 2.1 Wind Representation (REP W) Instant wind is defined at a given location as a vector composed of three components w, (t), wy (t), wZ (t). Therefore, the wind vector at a given moment (t) and at a given point (x, y, z) is represented by a relation of type: (ii) (x, y, z, t) = wx (x, y, z, t) .X + wy (x, y, z, 05; +142, (x, y, z, t) .Z> According to the invention, the type of representation of the wind used may be known in advance, determined in real time or determined arbitrarily According to one embodiment of the invention, the three components of the speed wy (t), wy (t), wz (t) can be defined by their respective spectra Wy, Wy, W This spectrum is assumed to be known or identified, it may be available in an analytical form, or in the form of a table or a data vector, for example the Von Karman spectrum may be used for the component. x, although the proposed method allows to adapt to any spectrum According to this example, we can note: 0.47562-Lv Wx (v) = ((L 1+ 27t-vw) Lv is a parameter called length wave, csx a scaling factor it characterizes the size of the turbulence and T is the average wind speed. This spectrum and its parameters may vary according to the places, the days. The method according to the invention makes it possible to take into account any spectrum. FIG. 3 is an example of a representation of wind speed wx along the x-axis as a function of time t, obtained by the von Karman spectrum. 2.2 Model of wind propagation (MOD PRO) In order to take into account the distance between the measuring point (PM) at which a measurement relative to the wind is carried out and the plane of the rotor (AR) for which one wishes to know the wind speed, we model the wind spread over this distance. According to one embodiment of the invention, the wind propagation model is constructed from at least one of the following assumptions: Coherence of the unit wind The unit coherence assumption means that the wind vector is the same on vertical planes perpendicular to the direction of the wind. wx (x, y, z, t) = wx (x, 0,0, t), wy (x, y, z, t) = wy (x, 0,0, t), wz (x, y, z, t) = wz (x, 0,0, t) - Taylor frozen turbulence hypothesis The fixed turbulence hypothesis means that turbulence propagates at the mean wind speed. 1-15 (x + dx, y, z, t) = 1-15 (x, y, z, t-cl / 7) These two hypotheses are good approximations for the local scales considered for the process according to 'invention. 2.3 LIDAR sensor model (MOD LIDAR) LIDAR sensor measurement is characterized by two functions. Figure 4 shows the three-dimensional characteristics of the LIDAR sensor measurement. The first function corresponds to the measurement axis and can be written: x 1 = [sin (0) cos (0) cos (0) cos (0) sin (0)] I z The second characteristic corresponds to a spatial characteristic (or volume) of LIDAR. The measure m (t) can be expressed by a relation of the form: I m (t) = f V> (0, 0) .w (/ sin (0), / cos (0) cos (0), / cos (0) sin (0), t)) f (1,10) dl of (1,10) is the spatial characteristic, lo is the focal length and may depend on the configuration of the LIDAR sensor. The model expressed above is adaptable to the type of LIDAR sensor (scanned or pulsed) used by the function f. For example, in the case of the scanned LIDAR, this spatial characteristic can be written by a relation of the form: f (1,10) = K (2, / - 12+ 1-- r 1 0) where test the constant from Rayleigh (1570), and K is a regulating factor. Under the hypotheses proposed, the measurement equation of the LIDAR sensor can be in the form of a convolution product, which admits a frequency response. By applying the Taylor hypothesis, we can write: +00, m (t) = f 1 (0, 0) .w (0.1 cos (0) cos (0), 1 cos (0) sin ( 0), t + / sin (0) f (1, 10) d1) 0 w By choosing a unitary coherence, we can write ± -, _ _ / sin (0) m (t) = $ / (0 , 0) .w (t + _) f (1,10) d1 0 W, Then, by development of the scalar product: sin (0) fv; x (/ sin (0) t + f (1,10) d1 0 W (/ sin (0) m (t) = cs (0) cos (0) fijv'y t + _ f (1, 10) d1 0 W / sin (0) f (1,10) d1 cos ( 0) sin (6) 17v> yt + 0 W We put the following variable changes: I "= 1 sin (0) / = if n / 17) (0), f (r) - 17 ((K 1 - (T) 2 + 1+ 2 'Tw F sin (0)) / 0 sin (0) We are then faced with an equation of the type: sin (0) J x (t + r) f (r) d1 cs (0) cos (0) f 17v> y (t + r) f (r) dl m (t) = -o. + 00 cos (0) sin (0) $ wy (t + r) f (r) d1 -o.
    [0011] This is the equation of a convolution product, a system whose impulse response is defined by: f (r). FIG. 5 illustrates an example of response V to a pulse as a function of time for a LIDAR sensor with different focal lengths 10. The abscissas are given by t = 1 / average life time. The LIDAR sensor can therefore be seen under these hypotheses as a system convolution whose impulse response is as follows: f (r) K sin 2 (0) (2) 12 + (/ sin (0) + ITT)) 2 r '- / 0 sin (0) K sin 2 (0 ) or f (r) - w (2-10 sin (0)) 2 ± (117 i) 2 F 2 - / sin (0) K sin 2 (0) What can be approximated by f °) at seen from the order of the constant T (1112 F2) The frequency response of the system can thus be written in the following form 2irevi ° sin ° (0) - sin (0): ew L (v) where L (v) ) is the Fourier transform of function f). These steps are systematic and depend only on the average wind speed and the volume characteristic. In practice, a vector of value corresponding to the function L (v) is very easily obtained. If the function f (r 1 ° sin (0)) is not symmetrical around 1 °, as in the case T ° of the scanned LIDAR sensor, this remains a good approximation. In the case of the pulsed LIDAR sensor, the function is symmetrical. Since the function is symmetrical, the frequency response L (v) is real. Therefore, the model (measurement) of the LIDAR sensor, under the assumptions mentioned can be written in the frequency domain in the following form: 2iirv sin (0) Wx (v) Wy (y) W (v) M ( V) = ew L (v) [sin (0) cos (0) sin (0) cos (0) cos (0)] z 2.4 Construction of the wind estimator The models of the LIDAR sensor, wind propagation and the wind representation serves as an input for the construction of the wind estimator at the rotor. The reconstruction method is done in two stages. First, the optimal frequency response of the estimator is calculated. In a second step, the impulse response of a convolution system having this frequency response is calculated. According to the invention, it is sought to estimate at least one component of the wind speed at the rotor, in particular the longitudinal component on the rotor plane. Alternatively, the estimator estimates the three components of the wind speed. For this, we try to minimize an estimation error e (t), which is defined by the difference between the estimation of the speed on the plane of the rotor and the actual speed on this plane. Thus, the spectrum of the estimation error E (v) can be written: E (v) = 1 / osin (0) 1 0 0 Wx (y) Wy (v) 2 sin (0) cos (ç ) sin (6) cos (ç) cos (io) WZ (v) zn, -F (v) e WL (v) The following notations are also given: Wi (v) = [W, (v) 0 0] 2iirvl, sin (0) Wx (V) 2iirvl, sin (0) M (V) = ew L (v) [sin (0) cos (0) sin (0) cos (0) cos (0)] Wy ( V) = ew 111 R (v) W z (v) The solution that minimizes the spectral power density of the estimation error is written in the following form: F (v) = W 1 (v) M * ( v) (M (v) M * (v) + a 2) We can notice on this form that the terms Viii (v) and (M (v) M * (v) + a2) -1 = (MR (V ) M RT (V) ± a2) 1 are real terms. Thus, the frequency response of the wind F (v) wind estimator can be written in the form: 2 (sin) (0) -1 7 W / (V) MR (V) (MR (V) MRT (V) ) ± a2) To construct the rotor-level wind estimator using this frequency response, several methods can be used, including a windowing method, particularly using a Hanning window. For this method, we develop a technique to create a causal filter with a frequency characteristic of the following form: F (v) = e-17 eveS (v) The creation of the estimator takes place in two steps: - in a First, the impulse response of the non-causal filter of the continuous filter having the frequency response S (v) is calculated. the impulse response is then shifted in time to obtain the impulse response of the filter having the desired characteristic. Samples are then selected at a given sampling frequency on a given window. The approximation obtained is then of quality. Figures 6a to 6g illustrate the different steps of the windowing method for an example. For this example, we define a filter for which we want the following frequency response: 1 between 0 and 2 Hz and 4-5Hz, 0 elsewhere, the desired delay is 5s. Figure 6a illustrates this desired response. The first step is therefore to calculate the impulse response having the frequency response shown in Fig. 6b.
    [0012] For this, we first define a frequency vector of the form: F (v) = e [0, 1 * Fs / N, 2 * Fs / N, (n-1) * Fs / N], with Fs the sampling frequency, and N the number of samples. For these frequencies, we define the frequency response of the filter: [S (0), S (Fs IN), S (2Fs IN) 'S ((N -1) Fs IN)] The answer sought is the response of a discrete filter, symmetrical about the axis. We thus define the following vector: [S (0) + S ((N -1) Fs IN), S (Fs IN) + S ((N -2) Fs IN), S ((N -1) Fs IN ) + S (Fs IN)] By application of the discrete inverse Fourier transform, the impulse response ID illustrated in FIG. 6b is obtained after rearrangement. This impulse response contains N samples, and is sampled at a sampling frequency of Fs. The estimator with this impulse response is a discrete, non-causal filter with the frequency response S (v). The frequency response sought is of the type F (v) = e 2 S (v). Part e-2I'vr is a time delay 1.. The impulse response of the filter having the desired frequency response can therefore be obtained after a simple shift. FIG. 6c represents the sought-after RET pulse response obtained by ID shift. This figure illustrates the ideal impulse response ID and the impulse response obtained after RET delay by a translation T. The next step is to approximate this impulse response by means of a windowing. Several types of windows can be used: in general, the Hanning window gives an excellent approximation. The Hanning window is defined by: H (t) - + -cos 2 2 (271- (t -Ta 2, te [-Ta, Ta] Ta 0 elsewhere We multiply the impulse response by H (tr), or 1 The Ta parameter is used to select the quality of the approximation, and is between 0 and 1. Figure 6d shows how windowing allows you to choose an interval.This figure shows the windowing FE and the response ideal impulse ID, as a function of time The application of these steps allows to obtain a vector The values of this vector must be regularized so that their sum is equal to S (0), the response of the estimator Wind at zero frequency After regularization, the values of this vector give the coefficients of a discrete FIR filter at the sampling frequency Fs Figure 6e illustrates the frequency response of the FIR filter as a function of time.
    [0013] If we look at the frequency response of this filter by looking at its frequency response M and its phase P as a function of the frequency f, as shown respectively in FIGS. 6f and 6g, it is obvious that the phase corresponds perfectly to the desired delay (the curve obtained is substantially superimposed on the desired curve), and that the amplitude is a good approximation of the specifications. The construction of the estimator is therefore a very generic method to implement an estimator (filter) whose frequency response is known, which has a form similar to the solution form of the optimal filtering problem. The contribution is the combination of the modeling, the formatting of the estimation problem and its solution and the use of the windowing method to set up the filter. The generic character is provided by the fact that the method works whatever the characteristic of the LIDAR sensor, regardless of the representation of the wind. We can always find a solution and implement it using the windowing method.
    [0014] Thus, the rotor wind estimator is valid for all wind representations, and all models of the LIDAR sensor. Another important point is that all computations are efficient in the sense of algorithmic complexity, ie they are fast (computation time is not important). This method creates a filter object, which can easily be implemented. It is this object that will ensure the reconstruction of the wind at the rotor. 3. Wind Estimation at the Lvestà Rotor In this step, wind speed at the rotor is estimated using the acquired measurement and the rotor wind estimator. For this purpose, the constructed estimator is applied to the acquired signal at the measurement point. Preferably, the estimate relates to the three components of wind speed at the rotor. Alternatively, the estimate of the wind speed concerns at least one component of the wind speed, in particular the longitudinal component of the wind speed.
    [0015] Since the calculation time is low compared to the application, it is therefore possible to determine the wind speed at the rotor in advance. 4. Control and / or monitoring of the wind turbine (CON) Depending on the estimated wind speed w at the rotor, the wind turbine can be controlled in order to optimize the recovered energy. According to the invention, it is possible to control the angle of inclination of the blades and / or the electric torque of recovery of the generator of the wind turbine according to the speed of the wind. Other types of regulating device can be used. According to one embodiment of the invention, the angle of inclination of the blades and / or the electric recovery torque are determined by means of mappings of the wind turbine as a function of the wind speed at the rotor. For example, the control method described in patent application FR 2976630 A1 (US 2012-0321463) can be applied. The control of the wind turbine optimizes the recovered energy. Moreover, by means of this control, the LIDAR makes it possible to reduce the loads on the structure, of which the blades and the mast represent 54% of the cost. Therefore, the use of a LIDAR sensor optimizes the structure of the wind turbine, thus reducing costs and maintenance. In addition, wind estimation at the rotor can be used for monitoring the wind turbine. For example, it can be used for real-time monitoring of the wind turbine or to diagnose a failure thereof. According to one embodiment of the invention, the electrical torque of recovery of a generator of said wind turbine is monitored as a function of the estimated wind speed. Alternatively, the wind speed estimate at the rotor may be used jointly for the control and monitoring of the wind turbine.
    [0016] The invention also relates to a wind turbine, in particular an offshore wind turbine equipped with a LIDAR sensor. According to one embodiment of the invention, the LIDAR sensor can be placed on the nacelle of the wind turbine. The LIDAR sensor is directed in such a way as to measure the wind upstream of the wind turbine. The wind turbine comprises control means, for example the control of the pitch angle, to implement the method according to the invention. Example of application In this section, we detail for an example the steps of creation of the estimator allowing the reconstruction of the wind on the rotor plane. - Wind spectrum This spectrum is assumed known or identified. It may be available in an analytic form, or in the form of a table or data vector. For this example, the wind spectrum is expressed according to the Von Karman spectrum. - Frequency characteristic of the LIDAR sensor. The characteristic of the LIDAR sensor is given in the form of a function of the focal length. The function is an integral on the axis: it is a weighted integral of the scalar product of the wind vector at a point on the axis. axis to which point the LiDAR. In the case of a Scanned LIDAR sensor, the weighting function is f (1,10) = K. The frequency characteristic of the LIDAR sensor (l 2/2 + 1- r 10)) / sin (0) can be obtained in two stages: the first passes through the change of variable I "=, then by the T recentering of the characteristic around 1 ° sin (0) The frequency response can then be characterized by an analytical solution, or numerically by means of the discrete Fourier transform Then the frequency response of the LIDAR sensor is available: / 0 sin (0 2irev - ew L (v) - Construction of the wind estimator We are then able to calculate the optimal response of the wind estimator given by: 2irev / 0 sin (0) F (v) = ew W i (v) MR (v) (MR (v) M RT (v) + a2) Wz (v) = [Wy (v) 0 0] Wx (v) MR (y) = L (v) [sin (v) 0) cos (0) sin (0) cos (0) cos (0)] Wy (y) Wz (v) _ For this, we then implement the windowing method to create the filter 2/7 [v / 0 s111 (0) having the frequency response F (v) = e W Wi (V) MR (V) (MR (V) MRT (v) a2, thus obtaining the frequency response as shown in Figures 7a and 7b. In FIG. 7a, it can be seen that for the amplitude M the curve of the setpoint CONS is almost superimposed on the estimated curve EST. In FIG. 7b concerning the phase P, it is noted that the curves of the setpoint CONS and of the estimate EST are quite close. - Estimation of the wind speed The signal measured by the LIDAR sensor is then passed into the constructed estimator to recover the wind estimate on the plane of the rotor. Figure 7c shows the wind speed curves for the signals of the CONS (corresponding to the actual wind speed at the rotor), the EST (corresponding to the wind speed calculated by the estimator ) and the delay RET (corresponding to the impulse response of the desired filter, which corresponds to the impulse response of the ideal filter which has been delayed.
    [0017] This delay corresponds to the arrival time of the wind on the plane of the rotor). FIG. 7d allows a comparison of the speed error for the optimal estimator (OPT) and the delay RET. It can be observed that the estimator according to the invention makes it possible to accurately estimate the wind speed at the rotor. Thus, the control of the wind turbine can be adapted effectively depending on the wind.
