Signal processing in measurement systems

Abstract

Most technical measuring and technological equipment, instruments and systems, such as linear and circular scales, measuring transducers, numerical controlled machine tools, etc. have some kind of information - measuring systems that give the information about the position of the part of the machine or instrument, measuring information, etc. The information - measuring systems are calibrated against the reference standards of measure comparing their accuracy at some pitch of calibration, for example, at the beginning, middle point and the end of the stroke or at every tenth of the stroke in the range of measurement. It depends on the written standards and methodical documentation of these machines or instruments.
