Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a single excitation signal covering a broad frequency range is used, then the measurement covers all frequency bands including resonance and antiresonance frequencies, but the measurement accuracy at specific resonance and antiresonance frequencies is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The measurement process is divided into multiple stages: first measuring the entire frequency range with a first excitation signal to identify resonance and antiresonance frequencies, then performing targeted measurements at these specific frequencies using a second excitation signal. This segmentation allows comprehensive coverage while achieving high accuracy at critical frequencies through focused measurement.
Solution Approach 2:
The first measurement using the first excitation signal serves as a preliminary action to identify the resonance and antiresonance frequencies before the main high-accuracy measurement. This preliminary identification enables the second excitation signal to be optimized for accurate measurement at the specific frequencies of interest.
2Measurement precision
If multiple excitation signals are used to improve measurement accuracy at resonance and antiresonance frequencies, then measurement precision improves, but the device complexity and measurement time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The same measurement apparatus performs multiple functions: it generates both the first broad-frequency excitation signal and the second targeted excitation signal, processes both measurement sets, and synthesizes the final frequency characteristics. This multi-functionality avoids the need for separate specialized measurement systems while achieving high accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The measurement system uses feedback from the first measurement results to determine the resonance and antiresonance frequencies, then adjusts the second excitation signal parameters based on this feedback to optimize the second measurement. This feedback loop ensures high accuracy at critical frequencies while keeping the system adaptable rather than overly complex.
