ABOUT BOOK

This course is an introduction to measurement technology and describes the theoretical foundations and practical examples of measurement systems. The analyzing of measurements problems and specifying of measurements systems are the main subjects that are treated in this course, where the main focus will be on the different kind of measurement errors and the concept of uncertainty in measurement results. Electronic measurement instrumentation will be introduced; a number of conventional sensors for the measurement of non-electronic variables will be described, as well as electronic circuits for the reading of the sensors.-Analyzing of measurement problems-Describing of measurement problems -Analyzing the measurement quantity-Analyzing the measurement boundaries for a quantity to be measured in different circumstances-Professional use of the measurement system-Describing the operating principle of conventional instruments for electronic measurements.-Comparing the available measurement instruments on the basis of quality and accuracy.-Realization of simple measurement setups.-Using the electronic sensor for the measurement of non-electronic variables.-Using a simple signal processing circuits for the reading of the sensors.-Analyzing, presenting and interpreting of measurement results;-Recognizing and describing of error sources.
