What is it about?
This letter carries out the analysis of a wind turbine in the frequency domain. Here it has been shown that at low frequencies the wind turbine behaves as an all-pass system. But at high frequencies this system can have resonance peaks. Therefore, it is important to design robust feedback control systems in order to carry out the disturbance rejection at high frequencies.

Why is it important?
This work is important because it shows that the frequency-domain analysis allows us to analyze the dynamic behavior of the wind turbine from the Systems Theory point of view, allowing us to design better feedback control systems.
Perspectives
This publication contributes to open a new field of study for researchers interested in improving the performance of wind turbines. To date, most of the publications aimed at analyzing the power performance of wind turbines focus solely on the time-domain analysis. However, throughout the history of the development of the Systems Theory, it has been shown that the analysis in the frequency domain gives the researcher a much broader vision of the system under study. So, we hope that this publication can humbly contribute to open new lines of research in the field of wind turbines.
