In-depth coverage of instrumentation and measurement from theWiley Encyclopedia of Electrical and Electronics Engineering
The Wiley Survey of Instrumentation andMeasurement features 97 articles selected from the WileyEncyclopedia of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, the onetruly indispensable reference for electrical engineers. Together,these articles provide authoritative coverage of the importanttopic of instrumentation and measurement. This collection also, forthe first time, makes this information available to those who donot have access to the full 24-volume encyclopedia. The entireencyclopedia is available online-visitwww.interscience.wiley.com/EEEE for more details.
Articles are grouped under sections devoted to the major topicsin instrumentation and measurement, including:
* Sensors and transducers
* Signal conditioning
* General-purpose instrumentation and measurement
* Electrical variables
* Electromagnetic variables
* Mechanical variables
* Time, frequency, and phase
* Noise and distortion
* Power and energy
* Instrumentation for chemistry and physics
* Interferometers and spectrometers
* Microscopy
* Data acquisition and recording
* Testing methods
The articles collected here provide broad coverage of thisimportant subject and make the Wiley Survey ofInstrumentation and Measurement a vital resource forresearchers and practitioners alike.
