From the recordings of the combination of devices, it should be possible to derive the „free“ (undisturbed) wind velocity as well as the gradient of the mean wind speed with measurements in several distances to the turbine rotor (~ induction effects). In addition, it should be possible to derive the vertical and horizontal wind profile over the rotor plane with an as high as possible spatial resolution from the provided measurements.
