Verstärkerschaltung zur Messung elektrischer Spannungen oder . . . ■ - - . Ströme ■ Amplifier circuit for measuring electrical voltages or . . . ■ - -. Currents ■
In der modernen Meßtechnik ist häufig die Aufgabe gestellt, sehr kleine Spannungen zu messen. In vielen Fällen stört dabei die vom Meßverstärker erzeugte Rauschspannung.In modern measurement technology, the task is often set to measure very small voltages. In many cases this is annoying the noise voltage generated by the measuring amplifier.
Bei Signalen, die.sich periodisch exakt wiederholen, kann bekanntermaßen das Signal-Rausch-Verhältnis dadurch verbessert werden, daß entweder das Meßsignal mittels Filter gegenüber dem breitbandigeren Rauschen angehoben wird oder das Gesamtsignal - das aus Meßsignal und Verstärkerrauschen besteht in numerische Werte umgesetzt wird und diejenigen Vierte addiert werden, die in Zeitpunkten anfallen, an denen das Meßsignal aufgrund seiner Periodizitat korrespondierende Werte aufweist. Bei letzterem Verfahren erhält das Summensignal nach η Additionen das η-fache des Meßsignals und das Tri-fache des Rauschsignals, so daß das Signal-Rausch-Verhältnis um den Faktor ΎΈ? verbessert wird. Beide Verfahren haben sich - einzeln oder kombiniert angewandt - zwar bewährt, doch haftet ihnen der Nachteil an, daß eine Verbesserung des Signal-Rausch-Verhältnisses um den Faktor r eine Verlängerung de r erforderlichen MeßzeitIn the case of signals which repeat themselves periodically exactly, the signal-to-noise ratio can be improved, as is known, by either increasing the measurement signal by means of a filter in relation to the broadband noise or converting the total signal, which consists of the measurement signal and amplifier noise, into numerical values and those fourths are added which occur at times at which the measurement signal has corresponding values due to its periodicity. In the latter method, after η additions, the sum signal receives η times the measurement signal and triple the noise signal, so that the signal-to-noise ratio is increased by the factor ΎΈ? is improved. Both methods have proven themselves - applied individually or in combination - but they have the disadvantage that an improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio by the factor r increases the required measurement time

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Verstärkerschaltung zum Messen elektrischer Spannungen oder Ströme zu schaffen, die eine Verbesserung des Signal-Rausch-Verhältnisses ohne zusätzlichen Zeitaufwand ermöglicht.The invention is based on the object of an amplifier circuit to measure electrical voltages or currents to create an improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio made possible without additional expenditure of time.
Diese Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Signalquelle an zwei oder mehrere parallel geschaltete Verstärker angeschlossen ist, deren Ausgänge mit einem Addierer verbunden sind, an dessen Ausgang der Eingang eines Meßgerätes liegt.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the signal source is connected to two or more in parallel Amplifier is connected, the outputs of which are connected to an adder, at the output of which the input of a Measuring device lies.
Die Erfindung beruht auf folgenden Überlegungen: Das Rauschen eines jeden. Verstärkers stellt einen statistischen Vorgang dar, der von dem jedes anderen Verstärkers - auch des gleichen Typs - unabhängig ist. Die Rauschspannungen zweier Verstärker sind demnach zwei völlig unkorrelierte statistische Signale. Addiert man die Rauschspannung von N gleichen Verstärkern, so erhält man eine Rauschspannung, deren Effektivwert nur das yiP-fache der Rauschspannung jedes einzelnen Verstärkers beträgt, während das Meßsignal durch die Addition auf das N-fache angehoben wird. Damit ist eine weitere Möglichkeit gegeben, das Verhältnis von Meßsignal und Verstärkerrauschen zu verbessern: Führt man das Meßsignal gleichzeitig N Verstärkern zu und addiert deren Aus gangs signale, so erhält man ein Summen-Signal, das ein um den Faktor YW verbessertes Signal-Rausch-Verhältnis aufweist. Zur weiteren Verbesserung kann zusätzlich Filterung und/oder Mittelwertsbildung entsprechend den kannten Verfahren angewandt werden.The invention is based on the following considerations: The noise of everyone. Amplifier represents a statistical process that is independent of that of any other amplifier - even of the same type. The noise voltages of two amplifiers are therefore two completely uncorrelated statistical signals. If you add the noise voltage of N identical amplifiers, you get a noise voltage whose rms value is only yiP times the noise voltage of each individual amplifier, while the measurement signal is increased by the addition to N times. This provides a further possibility of improving the ratio of measurement signal and amplifier noise: If the measurement signal is fed to N amplifiers at the same time and their output signals are added, a sum signal is obtained that has a signal-to-noise ratio that is improved by a factor of YW. Has ratio. For further improvement, filtering and / or averaging can be used in accordance with the known methods.
Durch das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren wird bei gleicher Meßzeit das insgesamt erzielte Signal-Rausch-Verhältnis gegenüber den bekannten Verfahren um den Faktor YW verbessert oder die zur Erzielung des gleichen Signal-Rausch-Verhältnisses erforderliche Meßzeit um den Faktor pr verkürzt.With the method according to the invention, the overall signal-to-noise ratio achieved is improved by the factor YW compared to the known methods, or the measuring time required to achieve the same signal-to-noise ratio is shortened by the factor pr, with the same measuring time.
