Abstract :
Summary form only given: This tutorial will describe some general methods of estimating measurement uncertainties. These include estimates based on theory, simulation, and altering the measurement system. Combining uncertainties will be discussed. The conditions for the validity of the central limit theorem will be considered. Finally, a measurement example from planar near-field measurements will be given.
