Synchronization in multi-sensor measurements: importance and methods
Measurement methods with multiple sensors are powerful tools in assessing and diagnosing noise. As sensor counts increase, the number of sensors can exceed the number of available channels in a single data acquisition system. In these cases, multiple data acquisition systems can be
used, but synchronizing the sampling of each system is critical for an accurate measurement. In this tutorial, different methods of synchronization are discussed, along with the benefits and drawbacks of each. Additionally, methods of post-processing data to synchronize measurements are presented
for use in cases where hardware-based synchronization is not feasible.
