Description Usage Arguments Details Value Examples
Generates best powers for a range of time intervals given vectors of power (Watts) and time (seconds).
1 2 | power_prof(power.W, time.s, windows = seq(2 * 60, 30 * 60, 10),
quietly = FALSE)
|
power.W, time.s |
numeric vectors (of equal length) describing power readings in Watts and the times at which they were recorded (in seconds). |
windows |
numeric; window(s) over which to derive best powers. If data are sampled consistently at 1 Hz, these effectively correspond to time windows in units of seconds. Hence, assuming 1 Hz sampling, the default is 2-30 minutes in 10 second increments. |
quietly |
logical; should warning messages be suppressed? |
In the interest of efficiency, this function returns a power profile
for which time windows are not known exactly a priori. As data can
be, and often are, sampled with inconsistencies, deriving best powers for
known durations is computationally expensive. However, absent any
inconsistencies (e.g. breaks in the data), the returned time windows will
be of duration: windows / sampling_frequency
. Hence, the default
range for the profile should be roughly 2 to 30 minutes (in 10 second
increments) assuming 1 Hz sampling.
If there are large breaks in the data, specious values might be
returned. This because head unit devices will record a power value when
recording is resumed after a pause, and this power value will thus be
associated with a large delta time value. In effect, the power value logged
when recording is resumed will be treated as the mean power output
for that entire break. With obvious implications. If such a situation is
encountered, this function will throw a warning if quietly = FALSE
.
A tbl_df
with two columns: a vector of time
windows and a vector of corresponding maximal mean powers.
