Abstract
A new control problem, which arises in active control of variable speed horizontal axis wind turbines for electric power generation, is discussed. Feedback control of a linear plant, which is persistently disturbed, must cause the plant output to track a linear function of the disturbance. Theory, which will guarantee stable disturbance tracking, is developed using the method of aggregation.These results are related to the better known Disturbance Accommodating Control Theory and applied to create a tip speed ratio tracking controller for a horizontal axis wind turbine generator.
