QUANTITIES TRANSFORMATION: GENERAL TECHNIQUES AND ACCURACY IMPROVEMENT
Vladimir Kneller
Abstract:
The process of quantities transformation, which underlies many other processes such as measurement, control, etc. is considered. It is defined as a process of physical realization of the desired functional dependence between the quantities x and y, i.e. y = f(x), interpreted as the specific target-oriented family of causally related events and considered regardless of the physical nature of the participating quantities, i.e. at the structural level. The general methods for realization of the main components of quantities transformation – connecting y and x with a desirable functional relationship and reducing the effect of undesirable factors on this relationship – are revealed and systematized in deductive, logically clear way starting from several known generic principles and mechanisms.
