High End Sensors & Sensor Systems: How to Achieve High Metrological Performance ?

Further technical progress in microelectronics, instrumentation, robotics, automation control and systems requires the design and development of various high-end sensors and sensor systems on its basis for different physical and chemical, electrical and non-electrical quantities. In addition, high-end sensors will play significant role in the coming IoT 2.0 and Industry 4.0 trends.

High-end sensors are advanced devices, which have high metrological performances and technical (operational) characteristics. Recently, the functionality extension, namely, self-testing, self-validation and self-adaptation are also observed in some high-end sensors. This trend along with the increase of metrological performances will prevail in the next few years in the field of high-end sensors and sensor systems on its basis.

Speaking about the metrological performances the basic metrological performances are the following: specified measuring range; measuring time; and various components of error of measurement. Namely metrological performances directly affect the cost of high-end sensors and sensor systems. So, for example, increasing the accuracy of a sensor in two times, can cause an increase in cost in 10 times. In order to make high-sensors that would meet modern requirements and at the same time have a reasonable price, new technologies that are cutting costs while increasing effectiveness are necessary.
