Sensitivity analysis of the chip for REMS wind sensor

The silicon chip designed and fabricated by Micro and Nano Technology Group from UPC which has been delivered to the remote environment monitoring station project is the fundamental element of the wind sensor of the meteorological station for Mars surface. The purpose of this article is to present a sensitivity analysis of the chip according to the harsh Martian environment and to indicate the true sensor ability for reliable wind speed and incidence angle measurements in strongly rarified carbon dioxide atmosphere of the "red planet".
