Course description
If you want to develop advanced mechanical systems, you need precisely machined components. You also need to measure the size of your mechanical systems and components with high precision. In almost all fields of science and engineering, you need to do experiments. Advances in science and engineering have been made by advances in measurement systems and signal processing technologies, which in tern enables further advances in measurement systems and signal processing technologies. Today’s science and engineering have been built on the repetition of this cycle. In this course, students will learn basics of instrumentation engineering that are required for doing experiments. The focus is placed on frequency analysis of discrete signals.

The topics covered in the course include:
- Random variables, sample mean, and unbiased variance
- Analog to digital converters
- Discrete Fourier transform
Expected Learning
Learners who successfully complete this course will be able to:
- Calculate the standard deviation expected for the measurements they conduct
- Understand the working principles of major analog-to-digital converters and select one appropriate to the measurements they conduct.
- Calculate frequency components contained in the signals measured by using an analog-to-digital converter.
