Abstract
A generalized wind vector sensor can be constructed from an orthogonally mounted Gill propeller pair. Due to the non-cosinusoidal response of each of the anemometers, simple analysis of the output leads to magnitude and direction errors. An algorithm to reduce this error is described. It is based on an expression for the Gill response function derived from published wind tunnel data.Keywords
