Abstract

A method is for controlling a wind turbine. The wind turbine has a tower, a nacelle, a rotor with at least two rotor blades and a yaw system with at least one yaw drive configured to rotate the nacelle about a vertical axis of the tower (yaw axis). A control signal for the at least one yaw drive depends on at least one signal indicative of the wind direction. The control signal for the at least one yaw drive further depends on at least one value indicative of a vibration mode of the rotor blades.
