20k_CdS_LDR_TSL2591_characterisation.xlsx

These are the readings from a 20kOhm (nominal) Light Dependent Resistor taken simultaneously with a TSL2591 light sensor using various configuration settings and then used to map Lux levels to anticipated ADC readings, if the LDR were installed in a voltage divider. Used to simulate a year of ADC readings using solar radiation data as the input.

dayTime_dev_oneYearSimulatedReadingsArray.zip

This is an "as-is" Arduino project zipped file. Unzip and make sure all files are in the same folder. There is a sketch which implements some test functions to filter the simulated ADC data (converted from actual solar radiation measurements).

Solar_radiation_to_voltages_and_first_filters.xlsx

This is an "as-is" spreadsheet of the solar radiation (W/m2) data from the London photovoltaic study dataset, with conversion to simulated LDR voltage divider readings to process with a microcontroller. There are also tabs/sheets to try different averaging filters etc to try and normalise/find phase markers in the data. There are graphs to help visualise where these points are.
