Abstract :
This paper will describe data collection considerations and analysis methods used in the characterization of vibrating beam sensors during vibration and shock at frequencies to 10 kHz and beyond. Data sampling rate and quantization errors will be discussed. A simple method for data collection and analysis of sine sweep tests will be presented.
