Measurement Chain
physical quantity → sensor → signal conditioning → transmitter → controller
Every measurement introduces limitations. Accuracy, precision, resolution, range, bandwidth, drift, hysteresis, noise, environmental sensitivity, and calibration affect the usefulness of the resulting signal.
