Constructions of statistical estimates of digital measurement error in the case of small samples

Abstract

The paper presents a computational-experimental method for the construction of statistical estimates of the error of digital measurements carried out on complex technical objects with metrological support. The algorithm of construction of the estimation of the distribution density function of random error of measurements on the basis of complex application of methods of the theory of characteristic functions, the theory of Lie operator series and methods of statistical modeling in the processing of a limited amount of statistical information in the conditions of small samples is described. The solution of the practical problem on the construction of the estimation of the measurement error distribution density and the problem on the zero mark of the measuring instrument in the probabilistic formulation is given. The presented computational and experimental method can be used to construct statistical estimates for the probability distribution density of the general type, including those given by implicit functions, characteristic functions and operator series.
