CERN Spiezia Giovanni Naples U. CERN Tiso Stefano CERN Walckiers Louis CERN 2007 A statistical behavioral modeling approach for assessing dynamic metrological performance during the concept design of accurate digitizers is proposed. A surface-response approach based on statistical experiment design is exploited in order to avoid unrealistic hypothesis of linearity, optimize simulation effort, explore systematically operating conditions, and verify identification and validation uncertainty. An actual case study on the dynamic metrological characterization of a Fast Digital Integrator for highperformance magnetic measurements at European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is presented. research-article

Metrological Characterization of an Improved DSP-Based On-line Integrator for Magnetic Measurements at CERN Arpaia Pasquale Sannio U. Inglese Vitaliano Naples U. CERN Spiezia Giovanni Naples U. CERN 2007 An improved on-line version of the self-calibrating digital instrument for flux measurements on superconductive magnets for particle accelerators, prototyped at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in cooperation with the University of Sannio, is proposed. The instrument acquires voltage arising from rotating coils transducers. Then, the samples are online integrated and suitably processed in order to achieve flux analysis time down to 2.0 ìs, with resolution of 50 ns. Details about hardware and firmware conception, on-line measurement principle, and preliminary results of metrological characterization of the prototype are provided. research-article

CERN Spiezia Giovanni Naples U. CERN Tiso Stefano CERN 2009 58 1919 1928 A statistical approach to behavioral modeling for assessing dynamic metrological performance during the concept design of accurate digitizers is proposed. A surface-response approach based on statistical experiment design is exploited for avoiding unrealistic hypothesis of linearity, optimizing simulation, exploring operating conditions systematically, as well as verifying identification and validation uncertainty. An actual case study on the dynamic metrological characterization of a Fast Digital Integrator for high-performance magnetic measurements at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is presented. research-article
