Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and wind turbine for determining a dynamic twist of one or more blades. One or more first signals are received from a first wireless sensor attached to a blade of a wind turbine and a first angle is determined based on the received first signals. One or more second signals are received from a second wireless sensor attached to a blade of a wind turbine and spaced apart from the first wireless sensor by a predetermined distance. A second angle is determined based on the received second signals. A dynamic twist of the blade is determined based on the determined first angle, the determined second angle and the predetermined distance.
