The book is intended to be a collection of contributions providing a bird’s eye view of some relevant multidisciplinary applications of data acquisition. While assuming that the reader is familiar with the basics of sampling theory and analog-to-digital conversion, the attention is focused on applied research and industrial applications of data acquisition. Even in the few cases when theoretical issues are investigated, the goal is making the theory comprehensible to a wide, application-oriented, audience.
In detail, the first chapter examines the effects of noise on the performance of data acquisition systems, and the performance improvements achievable thanks to dithering and averaging techniques. The second chapter presents some practical solutions for the acquisition of bandpass signals. The following chapters deal with distributed data acquisition systems, wireless sensor networks, and data acquisition systems architectures: they address synchronization, design and performance evaluation issues. Finally, a series of chapters present some multidisciplinary applications of data acquisition for sensing and on-line monitoring, ranging from energy and power systems to biomedical system, from nuclear and particle physics to magnetic shields characterization.
