I previously talked about measurements (some) when I looked at the uncertainty in the distance to the Sun. One of the simple ways of determining the uncertainty of a calculated quantity is to use the ...

Performing a measurement uncertainty calculation is often seen as problematic. One of the barriers to be overcome in the wider application of measurement uncertainty (MU) to reportable values is the ...

GUM, the internationally approved technique for calculating measurement uncertainty, is reliant on the availability of a certified reference sample. Likewise, to find any repeatable offset (systematic ...

Accuracy is a desirable aspect which is conceptually well defined. There are some definitions available for ‘accurate measurement’ in the ISO vocabulary of metrology terms. According to them, a ...

All measurements are subject to error. When a reportable value is derived from a measurement or series of measurements, this value is only an estimate of the “true ...

In the first round of testing, involving 60 measurements (six samples x five repeat tests x two rounds), an initial review of the results indicated that one sample consistently performed better than ...

With today�s applications requiring lower and lower noise-figure amplifiers, noise-source uncertainty becomes a bigger and bigger concern. Microwave modeling ...
