Traceable calibration of high-speed communications test equipment face challenges. The propagation of uncertainty from primary waveform standards can be done by using a covariance matrix approach, which becomes impractical as the waveform data length increases. With the new compressed covariance matrix approach uncertainty can be propagated for long waveform records. A freely available software tool for uncertainty assessment is presented.

A novel derivation procedure and constraint condition of the equation of reflection coefficient of equivalent source is presented. In the system of power sensor calibration, the reflection coefficient of equivalent signal source is an essential factor to figure out the calibration factor or effective efficiency. This paper gives a proof why the equivalent coefficient signal source can be used in power sensor calibration when the system of equivalent signal source is open-loop.

We report on a direct measurement of the relativistic Doppler shift with a Mach-Zehnder type interferometer, where the object mirror is subject to an accelerated motion. The measurement was realized with a commercial free-fall absolute gravimeter FG5X, which is usually used to measure the local acceleration due to gravity, g. The second order term of the Doppler shift has been measured with a relative uncertainty of 1.1 × 10-3.

A reference system for on-site calibration and validation of revenue metering systems is realized. The system consists of a three-phase power meter and high-accuracy current and voltage transformers (CTs and VTs). Measurements can be made up to 150 kV (system voltage) and line currents up to 5000 A. The power meter, the CTs, and the VTs were all calibrated. Based on the excellent results of the calibration of these components it is possible to predict the full system performance with an uncertainty of less than 100 μW/VA. This estimation was verified with a full system validation, showing that the system is much more accurate than required and that detrimental effects to the accuracy are well understood.

In order to monitor blade health and detect any damage efficiently, a new diagnosis method for wind turbine blades was proposed. In consideration of harsh environments of a wind turbine rotor, high-resolution real-time blade condition monitoring was realized with the use of optic sensors and a wireless network. A hybrid algorithm, which merges a statistical method with model information, was introduced to overcome the weakness of each method. In addition, alarm limits are determined through a machine learning algorithm to enhance its reliability. The proposed algorithm was embedded in the Blade Health Monitoring and Integrity Evaluation System and was verified at a 3MW wind turbine of the Yeongheung wind farm.

This paper presents an alternative application of the Feature Selective Validation (FSV) for comparing metrological data such as those coming from calibration certificates, standard references and historical records of intermediate verifications. Through the examples developed in this work, it is shown how the FSV method can be used to study the drift of the characteristic response of a measuring device, transducer or accessory, allowing identifying when the deviations observed are unacceptable requiring performing adjustments within the measurement chain. This approach can also be used to measure the improvement on a calibration method or of an specific condition of it.

A dual rf drive programmable Josephson voltage standard can generate quasi-continuous voltages. This paper focuses on the mathematical solutions to maximize the voltage resolution and describes one algorithm that can be used to solve this problem. Quasi-continuous voltages with a resolution of a few nanovolts can be achieved using Josephson junction arrays with missing junctions and arbitrary bit structure.

Nanoscale single-electron pumps could serve as the realization of a new quantum standard of electrical current. Here, a silicon quantum dot with tunable tunnel barriers is used as a source of quantized current. By controlling the electrostatic confinement of the dot via purposely engineered gate electrodes, we show that the robustness of the pumping mechanism can be dramatically enhanced and the detrimental effects due to non-adiabatic transitions are largely reduced. Our pump can produce a current in excess of 80 pA with experimentally determined relative uncertainty lower than 50 parts per million.
