Abstract
This paper describes an active simulating procedure of the time histor y of wind velocity in a wind tunnel. The simulated time histories of t he wind velocity by this technique fitted well the target ones. The wi nd gust observed at the site was simulated. The step changing wind gus ts which wind velocity changes :in a short time were generated. The si mulated time histories of wind velocity were repeatedly reproduced. Th e advantages of active simulation are summarized.
