Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method () of controlling operation of a wind turbine (). The method () comprises receiving operational () data indicative of oscillations in a wind turbine rotor (). The method () comprises deriving a first signal () representative of loads in a first direction in a reference plane and a second signal () representative of loads in a second direction in the reference plane. The second direction is different from the first direction. The method () further comprises determining an amplitude (A, A) of the first () and second () signals, as well as a phase offset (φ-φ) between the first () and second () signals. Finally, the method () comprises controlling the wind turbine () based on the amplitudes (A, A) and the phase offset (φ-φ). The disclosure also relates to a control unit () for controlling operation of a wind turbine () and to a wind turbine ().
