Summary:A method 500 for constrained control of a wind turbine includes receiving 502 a plurality of operating parameters corresponding to the wind turbine. The plurality of operating parameters includes a wind preview parameter and a plurality of constraint parameters. The method further includes generating 504 a constraint parameter estimate corresponding to a future time instant for at least one constraint parameter of the plurality of constraint parameters based on the plurality of operating parameters and a wind preview model. The method also includes predicting 506 an extreme event corresponding to the at least one constraint parameter based on the constraint parameter estimate. The method includes determining 508 a control parameter value corresponding to a wind turbine control parameter among a plurality of wind turbine control parameters. The method also includes operating 510 the wind turbine using a feedforward control technique based on the control parameter value to circumvent the extreme event.
