• This works presents a simplified Vertical Azimuth Display (VAD) motion simulator for off-shore wind lidars. The simulator is rooted to the case of a conically-scanning lidar (e.g., the Zephyr lidar), where the wind speed vector is retrieved from the Line-of-Sight velocities over one scan period. The methodological part addresses the geometrical foundations of the simulator and how the lidar attitude is assimilated in matrix form. The discussion part considers the case of time-invariant, horizontally-homogeneous wind under two motional cases of the lidar, static and dynamic. Cases examples are parameterized by Horizontal Wind Speed, Wind Direction and tilt amplitude.
