Abstract
The invention provides a controller for a wind turbine having three rotor blades, the controller being for controlling activation of individual pitch control of the rotor blades. The controller is configured to receive a flap load signal, from a flap loading sensor of each of the three rotor blades, indicative of flap loading on each of the respective rotor blades. The controller is configured to determine, based on the received flap load signals, a statistical dispersion parameter of flap loading for each of the rotor blades, the statistical dispersion parameters being indicative of a wind event in a wind field in which the wind turbine operates. The controller is configured to control activation of individual pitch control based on the respective statistical dispersion parameters.
