Description
Summary:The telemeasurement through heterogeneous networks to characterize systems and devices is addressed in this paper. The methodology is generally valid and applied to characterize communication systems. Both dedicated circuits and digital-signal-processor (DSP)-based realizations are taken into account; in the latter case, the remote definition of the system is also considered. The wide-sense telemeasurements concept is introduced in this paper as the general case in which both circuits and instruments are remotely defined and configured. This approach is particularly useful for two opposite situations: the case in which few valuable instruments are available only in some particular laboratories and the educational case where the number of instruments available is not sufficient with respect to the potential number of users. An integrated Web server architecture to manage both instruments and DSP platforms has been developed for educational purposes
