What is BS EN 62754- Computation of waveform parameter about?
BS EN 62754 is a safety standard on the computation of waveform parameter uncertainties.
BS EN 62754 specifies methods for the computation of the temporal and amplitude parameters and their associated uncertainty for step-like and impulse-like waveforms.
BS EN 62754 is applicable to all industries that generate, transmit, detect, receive, measure, and analyse these types of pulses.
Who is BS EN 62754- Computation of waveform parameter for?
BS EN 62754 on the computation of waveform parameter uncertainties is relevant to:
- Electrical and electronics engineers
- Electricians
Why should you use BS EN 62754- Computation of waveform parameter?
A signal is the physical event under scrutiny and is to be measured.
A waveform is a representation of that signal and is, for the purposes of BS EN 62754, the result of a waveform measurement process. Although a waveform can be presented in diverse ways, only a sampled waveform representation of the measured or otherwise estimated signal is considered. A sampled waveform is discretized in both amplitude and time because of the digitization performed by the waveform recorder. BS EN 62754 assists with the waveform parameters which are the values representing important characteristics of a waveform. Typically, waveform parameters depict noticeable characteristics of a waveform that facilitate the discussion, analysis, and comparison of waveforms. A measurement uncertainty analysis provides two distinct functions; one is metrological, and the other is measurement system design.
Overall, BS EN 62754 is useful as it provides the objective of any waveform measurement process that allows the determining an accuracy defined by the user of BS EN 62754, either expressed or implied, of the value of one or more parameters of a waveform.
