Abstract
Embodiments according to the invention describe a method for monitoring the state of the powertrain or tower of a wind turbine (10), said method having the steps of: detecting data of a state monitoring system which is provided for a structure of the wind turbine (10), said structure being mechanically coupled to the powertrain or tower; processing the detected data of the state monitoring system which is provided for the structure of the wind turbine (10), said structure being mechanically coupled to the powertrain or tower; and determining the state of the powertrain or tower from the processed data of the state monitoring system which is provided for the structure of the wind turbine (10), said structure being mechanically coupled to the powertrain or tower.
