Review of Weibull Statistics for Estimation of Wind Speed Distributions

摘要: Abstract A statistical distribution commonly used for describing measured wind speed data is the Weibull distribution. review of methods found in literature purpose estimation parameters distributions given, with a special emphasis on efficiency different methods. From this review, most appropriate method given application can be chosen. The general conclusion that maximum likelihood estimators should due to their large sample efficiency. However, they require an iterative minimization. recommended closed form when there are few observations (say, less than 25) least-squares estimators. If good resolution available, ten fractile very good. simplest two They, however, around three times as many order same accuracy. mean and stan...
