A New Conception of Measurement Uncertainty Calculation

Abstract

The paper presents a conception of uncertainty calculation of a result obtained in a direct measurement realized in conditions described by random errors. The conception basis on the error denition being an eect of analysis of a quantization process and, rst of all, it permits to determine uncertainty of a single measurement result in measuring and control systems processing signals varying in time. Division of the errors into two types A and B permits elaboration of such a procedure which enables uncertainty calculation for an average value of a series of measurements in the way close to this one proposed by GUM and widely discussed in last years. Theoretical considerations are illustrated by examples showing practical properties of the presented uncertainty calculation procedures.

“…It concerns the statistical analysis of the set { x i } of independent measurements repeated n times. There are two benefits of repeating a measurement with a random error: an increase in the accuracy of the measurement by calculating the mean value, and the possibility to assess the uncertainty of this measurement [ 60 , 61 , 62 ].…”

Indirect Method Usage of Distance and Error Measurement by Single Optical Cameras

“…The formula commonly used for uncertainty evaluation of measurement results is based on the following equation [6,10,11]…”

Dynamic Error Correction of Methane Sensor

“…Measurement errors can be divided into two types: static and dynamic [8]. Static errors are the ones that cause registration errors even when the user's viewpoint and the objects in the environment remain completely still.…”

“…ˆ, (8) which means that the output values x ˆ are equal to the values of the measured quantity. It could be said that the measuring circuit performs tasks of ideal transducer.…”
