Abstract: 
In this paper, a model-based control is proposed for an innovative 5 MW wind turbine with a hydrostatic transmission and a permanent magnet synchronous generator. The overall scheme involves two decentralised controllers, namely, one for the tower and blade deflections and another one for the drive train. For both control loops, a linear regulator design based on quadratic cost functions is performed by means of Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs). Using LMIs, given bounded uncertainty domains, which result from, for example, the variability of specific parameters, can be considered adequately. In contrast to state-of-the-art approaches, the presented control technique is capable to cover the whole operating range from low to very high wind speeds in terms of a unified parameterization.
