SYSTEM OREIENTED MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF SINGLE MEASUREMENT RESULT
Journal Title: Metrology and Measurement Systems - Year 2006, Vol 13, Issue 4
Abstract
Measurements in a system are performed automatically by using data acquisition cards typically consisting of an amplifier, a sample/hold circuit and an analog-to-digital converter. The results obtained from these cards are processed by a program. The processing algorithms are often of sophisticated numerical structure and, in this situation, the determination of inaccuracy of the system output data needs building a system error model. The base of the error model construction should be a model of a single measurement result delivered at the output of the card. The paper presents a model which has been obtained on the basis of an analysis of the quantization process consisting in a direct comparison of the measured quantity with a standard of quantum character. In a measuring system the quantization is realized by an AD converter, which measures a sample of a time-varying input quantity. The assumption that the sampling is performed at any moment enables obtaining the model described in probabilistic categories, which may be the basis of the uncertainty calculation of the system output data.
