Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a rotor control system for actuating pitch of pitch adjustable rotor blades of a wind turbine in order to reduce edgewise blade vibrations. The system comprises a pitch actuation unit being arranged to receive an edgewise load signal and apply m-blade coordinate transformations, such as the Coleman transformations, to the edgewise load signal. Based on a selected signal component at either a backward whirling frequency or a forward whirling frequency, a modified modification signal is obtained.
