Worked on the ArduPilot/ardupilot repository to enhance the reliability of simulation-in-the-loop (SITL) wind turbulence data handling. Focused on refactoring SITL_State.cpp by removing a ternary operator that previously caused type casting issues when accessing wind turbulence values, thereby ensuring accurate data interpretation within the simulation environment. This C++ and embedded systems work improved the robustness of SITL, reducing the risk of simulation inaccuracies related to wind turbulence scenarios. The approach emphasized code clarity and maintainability, with detailed documentation in commit messages to support future maintenance and traceability. No new features were added, but overall simulation reliability was strengthened.
