Description

Mock Wind Sensor now publishes data to the topic filtered_wind_sensor.
The wind speed is calculated using Weibull distribution.This distribution is a good fit for wind speed because is naturally positively skewed and has a long tail.
The wind direction is calculated using von Mises distribution centered around the mean. This distribution is a circular distribution, which is perfect for wind direction.

Verification

  • [Verified using manual testing by observing that the node publishes to the ROS ]
