Offshore wind turbines (OWT) are considered as one the most promising ways of harvesting green energies in the world. OWTs are dynamically sensitive as their loading frequency is close to their natural frequency, allowing a narrow band of frequency to avoid resonance. Therefore, precise estimation o...
