| 20100092289 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS INVOLVING WIND TURBINE BEARING DETECTION AND OPERATION - A method for determining a bearing of a wind turbine comprising, receiving a signal from a satellite at a first antenna disposed on a wind turbine, receiving the signal from the satellite at a second antenna disposed on the wind turbine, determining a position of the first antenna responsive to receiving the signal, determining a position of the second antenna responsive to receiving the signal, calculating a line of bearing intersecting the position of the first antenna and the position of the second antenna, determining an angle of the line of bearing relative to a reference bearing, and defining the bearing of the wind turbine as the angle of the line of bearing relative to the reference bearing. | 04-15-2010 |
