Anemometer calibration is performed to determine the relationship between the output of the anemometer, whether a voltage or TTL [transistor-transistor logic] signal [i.e., hertz or revolutions per minute], and the measurement of the reference wind speed. Thus, during a calibration test[, the] anemometer output is collected for a range of wind speed settings. With this data[,] a regresssion analysis is conducted to determine a calibration transfer function.
