Abstract
A cycling power meter includes at least one sensor and a controller. The controller is configured to derive a cycling power based on at least one output of the least one sensor and perform a zero-power calibration on the basis of the at least one output in a non-load condition. The calibration occurs through the steps of: computing at least one statistical index relative to the at least one output; evaluating whether the at least one statistical index A) falls or B) does not fall within a respective predetermined set of values; and performing the calibration in case A) or not performing the calibration in case B).

A cycling power meter comprising at least one sensor and a controller, the controller being configured to
- derive a cycling power based on at least one output of said least one sensor, and
- perform a zero-power calibration based on the at least one output of said at least one sensor in a non-load condition through the steps of:
- computing at least one statistical index relative to said at least one output,
- evaluating whether said at least one statistical index A) falls or B) does not fall within a respective predetermined set of values, and
- performing the zero-power calibration in case A) or not performing the zero-power calibration in case Bi).
