Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2123588A1] The control has a lifting gear for lifting a load suspended at a cable. A measuring device e.g. global positioning system-element, is provided for determining an actual swell movement from sensor data. A forecasting device is provided for forecasting an intended movement of the load suspending point on basis of the determined actual swell movement and a model of the swell movement. A load path control partially compensates the movement of the load by the swell by controlling the lifting gear of the crane based on the forecasting movement of the load suspending point. An independent claim is also included for a method for controlling a crane arranged on a floating body.
