A digital technique for linearising the output of a turbine anemometer.
A technique is described by which it is possible, using digital integrated circuits, to linearise the output of transducers which produce their output in serial digital form. The linearisation technique is used to improve the performance of an anemometer used in the measurement of pulmonary function. The new technique makes possible accurate paediatric measurements using transducers previously intended for adults.
