PRECISION MEASUREMENTS

ME 768

General concepts for predicting, characterizing, and reducing noise in measurements. Address the key questions of all experimentalists: (1) How can I improve my signal-to-noise ratio? (2) What is the ultimate detection limit of my measurement approach? Knowledge of Matlab programming and basic circuit design [such asE C E 230] is required.
