Abstract :
The basic notions of measurement science are overviewed. A general scheme of measurement is proposed that emphasizes the key role of measurand reconstruction. The problems of measurand reconstruction are classified. Two classes of them, being of particular importance in practical applications, are identified and discussed in more detail. These are the nonlinear reconstruction of a scalar static measurand in the presence of a scalar influence quantity, and the linear reconstruction of a scalar dynamic measurand. Considerations of a tutorial and theoretical nature are illustrated with practical examples
