Accuracy, Precision and Noise of Gas Sensors – Definitions

Intro­duc­tion „Accu­ra­cy“ is one of the most important qua­li­ty cri­te­ria of a gas sen­sor. But some­ti­mes „pre­cis­i­on“ rather than „accu­ra­cy“ is requi­red for sen­sors. And unfort­u­na­te­ly, in prac­ti­ce, high mea­su­re­ment accu­ra­cy often has to be bought at the pri­ce of redu­ced pre­cis­i­on and vice ver­sa. Data sheets often fail to decla­re what is actual­ly meant by…
