title = "On-board wind measurement system based on navigation data for small airplanes",
abstract = "An on-board wind measurement system is presented which is based on a new approach for determining the speed and the direction of the wind. The angles of attack and sideslip are obtained using data from a navigation system. Thus, it is not necessary to employ aerodynamic sensors for these quantities. The wind determination system features miniaturized hardware components. With such components, it is possible to achieve a low-cost wind measurement system. Furthermore, an efficient software was developed for operating the system. This software contributes to the low-cost solution because it can be operated on PC based computer hardware. Implementation was performed with emphasis on minimum computational cost. Because of the low-cost solution, a wind measurement system is affordable for small aircraft.",
