Abstract
The invention relates to a control system for a wind turbine. The wind turbine comprises a power generator configured to generate power dependent on a power reference and a pitch system configured to adjust the pitch of a blade of the wind turbine dependent on a pitch request. The control system comprises a controller configured to determine the pitch request dependent on an adjustable gain. A gain scheduler comprised by the control system is configured to set the adjustable gain to an increased gain value if a rate of change of the power reference, e.g. an external power reference, exceeds a threshold.
